Humanware refers to the individual using computer hardware and software. The design of humanware considers the needs and limitations of end users by developing products that are useful. The user interacts with and gives directives to hardware using software to produce needed outputs like typing letters, recording music, and communicating, demonstrating how humanware complements both hardware and software to create a fully functional computer system.

1. Humanware
Humanware refers to the user of the computer
hardware and software. It is about the individual
that uses the computer for productive or
entertainment purposes.
The design of humanware often begins with
understanding the needs and limitations of the end
user and working bottom-up to design a product
that is ultimately useful.
The user interacts with hardware to produce
needful output. It is the user to type a letter, help
record music, communicate over the airwaves and
ultimately give all directives.

2. Ex.. In a nutshell, a working computer
system is comparable to what happens
in the kitchen. You have:
• food and cookware - hardware,
• the recipe - software,
• the chef - humanware.
Both computer hardware and computer
software are complimented by the
works of Humanware to produce a fully
functional computer system.
