System software - Examples and Uses

-

 


System software refers to the low-level software that manages and controls a computer’s hardware and provides basic services to higher-level software. There are two main types of software: systems software and application software. Systems software includes the programs that are dedicated to managing the computer itself, such as the operating system, file management utilities, and disk operating system (or DOS).


Examples of System Software

System software is a type of computer program that is designed to run a computer’s hardware and application programs and examples of system software include operating systems (OS) (like macOS, Linux, Android, and Microsoft Windows), game engines, search engines(like google,Bing,Yahoo!), industrial automation, computational science software, and (SaS)software as a service applications.

  • Operating systems (OS): Windows, Linux, macOS, etc.
  • Device drivers: software that enables the communication between hardware and OS.
  • Firmware: pre-installed low-level software that controls a device’s basic functions.
  • Utility software: tools for system maintenance and optimization.
  • Boot loaders: software that initializes the OS during startup.

Why use System Software:

Here are some reasons why system software is necessary:
  1. Hardware Communication: System software serves as an interface between the hardware and software components of a computer, enabling them to communicate and work together.
  2. Resource Management: System software manages computer resources such as memory, CPU usage, and storage, optimizing their utilization and ensuring that the system operates efficiently.
  3. Security: System software provides security measures such as firewalls, antivirus software, and encryption, protecting the system and its data from malware, viruses, and other security threats.
  4. User Interface: System software provides a user interface that allows users to interact with the computer or computing device and perform various tasks.
  5. Application Support: System software supports the installation and running of applications and software on the system.
  6. Customization: System software allows for customization of the system settings and configuration, giving users greater control over their computing environment.

Gigabit Ethernet is key when there is a mine of information

Continuous, reliable communications are essential for the success of mining operations. They enable the transfer of crucial information across facilities, ensuring that fans, pumps, conveyors, and other key pieces of equipment operate correctly. When ineffective communications led to an increase in downtime at a mining complex in Mexico, CC-Link IE network technology offered a solid solution. When the (broadcast) storm is coming The facility utilises a Mitsubishi Electric MELSEC iQ-R PLC platform to control 35 variable frequency drives (VFDs), which in turn modulate the speed of fans, pumps and conveyors. While the automation components have been operating successfully for years, the mining complex was experiencing prolonged downtime associated with network failure. More precisely, approximately 20 hours were lost every month because of broadcast storms, data packet collisions, intermittent or even lost communications between enterprise level software and field devices. To address the

Network Virtualization

Network virtualization is a process of separating the functions of a network into different components, such as the physical infrastructure and management and control software and allowing those functions to operate separately. In this process, the software is used to emulate the functionality of hardware components that are commonly part of a traditional network. Network services are decoupled from the physical hardware they run on. They can be used independently, making them perfect for any network device. With this shift to programmable networks, we can more flexibly provision networks, more securely manage them, and programmatically and dynamically manage them. Network virtualization simplifies life for network administrators by making it easier to move workloads, modify policies and applications, and avoid complex and time-consuming reconfigurations when performing these tasks. In addition, customers and business people need instant access to various content, services, and informa
