8. The evolution of software
Introduction
April 8, 2024
 Computer software, or just software, is a collection of computer programs and
related data that provide the instructions for telling a computer what to do and
how to do it
 Software is a set of instructions, data or programs used to operate computers
and execute specific tasks.
 It is the opposite of hardware, which describes the physical aspects of a
computer.
 Software is a generic term used to refer to applications, scripts and programs that
run on a device.
 It can be thought of as the variable part of a computer, while hardware is the
invariable part.

9. The evolution of software
History
April 8, 2024
 The first theory about software was proposed by Alan Turing in his 1935
essay Computable numbers with an application to the
Entscheidungsproblem (Decision problem). The term "software" was
first used in print by John W. Tukey in 1958.
 The term is often used to mean application software. In computer
science and software engineering, software is all information processed
by computer system, programs and data.
 The academic fields studying software are computer science and
software engineering

11. The evolution of software
History
April 8, 2024
 Hardware by original equipment manufacturers (OEMS) such as data
general, digital equipment and IBM.
 When a customer bought a minicomputer, (at that time the smallest
computer on the market), the computer did not come with pre-installed
software, but needed to be installed by engineers employed by the OEM.
 Computer hardware companies not only bundled their software, but
they also placed demands on the location of the hardware in a
refrigerated space called a computer room

12. The evolution of software
SOFTWARE GENERATIONS
April 8, 2024
FIRST GENERATION
 During the 1950's the first computers were programmed by
changing the wires and set tens of dials and switches.
 One for every bit sometimes these settings could be stored
on paper tapes that looked like a ticker tape from the
telegraph

13. The evolution of software
SOFTWARE GENERATIONS
April 8, 2024
SECOND GENERATION
 the first generation "languages" were regarded as very user-
unfriendly people set out to look for something else, faster
and easier to understand.
 The result was the birth of the second-generation languages
(2GL) at the mid of the 1950's

14. The evolution of software
SOFTWARE GENERATIONS
April 8, 2024
THIRD GENERATION
 At the end of the 1950's the 'natural language’ interpreters
and compilers were made. But it took some time before the
new languages were accepted by enterprises.
 About the oldest 3GL is FORTRAN (Formula Translation)
which was developed around 1953 by IBM. This is a language
primarily intended for technical and scientific purposes.
Standardization of FORTRAN started 10 years later, and a
recommendation was finally published by the International
Standardization Organization (ISO) in 1968.

SOFTWARE GENERATIONS
April 8, 2024
FOURTH GENERATION
 A 4GL is an aid witch the end user or programmer can use to
build an application without using a third-generation
programming language. Therefore, knowledge of a
programming language is strictly spoken not needed

17. What is software (SW)?
SW is
• not only programs
• but also, all associated documentation, and
• configuration data
that make these programs operate correctly.
More specifically, a SW system consists of
• separate programs
• configuration files setting up these programs
• system documentation describing the structure of the system in good
detail
• user documentation explaining how to use and operate the system.

18. What is Software?
18
The product that software professionals build and then support
over the long term.
Software encompasses:
(1) instructions (computer programs) that when executed provide
desired features, function, and performance;
(2) data structures that enable the programs to adequately store and
manipulate information and
(3) documentation that describes the operation and use of the
programs.

 A tool for instructing machines.
 A notation for algorithms.
 A means for communication among programmers.
 A tool for experimentation.
 A means for controlling computer-controlled gadgets.
 A means for controlling computerized devices.
 A way of expressing relationships among concepts.
 A means for expressing high-level designs

Software Features
April 8, 2024

23. 23
 Functionality: It refers to the suitability, accuracy,
interoperability, compliance, security of software which is
measured as degree of performance of the software against
its intended purpose.
Software Features
April 8, 2024

24. 24
 Reliability: Refers to the recoverability, fault tolerance,
maturity of software, which is basically a capability of the
software that provide required functionality under the given
situations.
Software Features
April 8, 2024

25. 25
 Efficiency: It is the ability of the software to use resources of
system in the most effective and efficient manner. Software
must make effective use of system storage and execute
command as per required timing.
Software Features
April 8, 2024

26. 26
 Usability: It is the extent to which the software can be utilized
with ease and the amount of effort or time required to learn
how to use the software.

31. Software Classification
31
Among the various categories of software, the most common
types include the following:
 Application software. The most common type of software,
application software is a computer software package that performs a
specific function for a user, or in some cases, for another application.
An application can be self-contained, or it can be a group of programs
that run the application for the user.
Examples of modern applications include office suites, graphics
software, databases and database management programs, web
browsers, word processors, software development tools, image editors
and communication platforms.

32. Software Classification
32
 System software. These software programs are designed to
run a computer's application programs and hardware. System
software coordinates the activities and functions of the
hardware and software. In addition, it controls the operations
of the computer hardware and provides an environment or
platform for all the other types of software to work in.
The OS is the best example of system software; it manages all
the other computer programs. Other examples of system
software include the firmware, computer language translators
and system utilities.
April 8, 2024

33. Software Classification
33
 Driver software. Also known as device drivers, this software is
often considered a type of system software. Device drivers
control the devices and peripherals connected to a computer,
enabling them to perform their specific tasks. Every device
that is connected to a computer needs at least one device
driver to function.
Examples include software that comes with any nonstandard
hardware, including special game controllers, as well as the
software that enables standard hardware, such as USB storage
devices, keyboards, headphones and printers.

34. Software Classification
34
 Middleware. The term middleware describes software that
mediates between application and system software or
between two different kinds of application software.
For example, middleware enables Microsoft Windows to talk
to Excel and Word. It is also used to send a remote work request
from an application in a computer that has one kind of OS, to an
application in a computer with a different OS. It also enables
newer applications to work with legacy ones.
April 8, 2024

35. Software Classification
35
 Programming software. Computer programmers use
programming software to write code. Programming
software and programming tools enable developers to
develop, write, test and debug other software
programs.
Examples of programming software include
assemblers, compilers, debuggers and interpreters.
