-Operating System
-Language Compilers
-Assemblers
-Text Editors
-Print Spoolers
-Network Drivers
-Modern Programs
-Databases

Software Evolution

The process of developing a software product using software engineering principles and methods is referred to as Software Evolution. This includes the initial development of software and its maintenance and updates, till desired software product is developed, which satisfies the expected requirements. Evolution starts from the requirement gathering process. After which developers create a prototype of the intended software and show it to the users to get their feedback at the early stage of the software product development. The users suggest changes, on which several consecutive updates and maintenance keep on changing too. This process changes to the original software, till the desired software is accomplished. Even after the user has the desired software in hand, the advancing technology and the changing requirements force the software product to change accordingly. Re-creating software from scratch and to go one-on-one with the requirement is not feasible. The only feasibl...

What is java programming?

Java is a programming language that produces software for multiple platforms. When a programmer writes a Java application, the compiled code (known as byte code) runs on most operating systems (OS), including Windows, Linux and Mac OS. Java derives much of its syntax from the C and C++ programming languages. Java is Object oriented programming language. Java is a platform independent programming language. Java is use in most operating system and many application. Java provide JVM. That is call as java virtual   machine. That is java compiler. So that is java programming language.
