In addition, LANrev allowed school officials to take snapshots of instant messages, web browsing, music playlists, and written compositions.

Some libraries that employ content-control software allow the software to be deactivated on a case-by-case basis on application to a librarian ; libraries that are subject to CIPA are required to have a policy that allows adults to request that the filter be disabled without having to explain the reason for their request.

The Children's Internet Protection Act and the June 2003 case United States v. American Library Association found CIPA constitutional as a condition placed on the receipt of federal funding, stating that First Amendment concerns were dispelled by the law's provision that allowed adult library users to have the filtering software disabled, without having to explain the reasons for their request.

The operator could thus examine and modify the computer's registers, memory, and input / output devices, diagnosing and perhaps correcting failures in software and peripherals ( unless a failure disabled the microcode itself ).

If the software was on ROM, nothing would happen, but if the software had been moved to RAM, the software would be disabled.

Apart from Windows Media Player, most of the WMA compression formats can be played using ALLPlayer, VLC media player, Media Player Classic, MPlayer, RealPlayer, Winamp, Zune Software ( with certain limitations — DSP plugin support and DirectSound output is disabled using the default WMA plugin ), and many other software media players.

* Anti-theft protection: Laptops may have BIOS-based rootkit software that will periodically report to a central authority, allowing the laptop to be monitored, disabled or wiped of information in the event that it is stolen.

All of these functions are implemented in the touchpad device driver software, and can be disabled.

Where a disabled person is unable to leave their own home, it may be possible to assess them remotely using remote desktop software and a web cam.

The lab works in with the Bruckner Learning Center and contains assistive software, such as text-to-speech and speech-to-text programs for visually impaired or reading disabled students.

The primary problem is that the default state of the F Lock is " disabled " meaning that the keyboard normally overrides the standard F-functions and instead attempts to perform the " enhanced " functions theoretically enabled by the software ( which of course assumes, often incorrectly, that the user desires these enhanced functions and / or has installed the optional software.

Tests of facial recognition software dating from 2006 showed error rates of up to 52 percent for the disabled.

Some free software distributions of Linux, including Fedora, have included FreeType with font hinting functionality disabled or degraded to avoid the issue of software patents held by Apple Incorporated.

In 2011, the OpenX company disabled direct downloads of the software ( a form must be filled out ).

As a result of this, FTP server software often has FXP disabled by default.

* ANIMAL ( image processing ), an interactive software environment for image processing

In computer systems, an algorithm is basically an instance of logic written in software by software developers to be effective for the intended " target " computer ( s ), in order for the target machines to produce output from given input ( perhaps null ).

* " Atlas " was the former name for ASP. NET AJAX, Microsoft software, a set of ASP. NET extensions providing Ajax functionality

The terms architect and architecture are also used in the disciplines of landscape architecture, naval architecture and often information technology ( for example a software architect ).

It was designed to avoid some of the perceived problems with FORTRAN for backward compatibility with historic Buran ( spacecraft ) ALGOL software.

* Alfred ( software ), an application launcher for Mac OS X

The Amiga's native ability to simultaneously play back multiple digital sound samples made it a popular platform for early " tracker " music software.

Although the hardware is limited to four separate sound channels, software such as OctaMED uses software mixing to allow eight or more virtual channels, and it was possible for software to mix two hardware channels to achieve a single 14-bit resolution channel by playing with the volumes of the channels in such a way that one of the source channels contributes the most significant bits and the other the least.

The quality of the Amiga's sound output, and the fact that the hardware is ubiquitous and easily addressed by software, were standout features of Amiga hardware unavailable on PC platforms for years.

Expansion boards were made by Richmond Sound Design that allow their show control and sound design software to communicate with their custom hardware frames either by ribbon cable or fiber optic cable for long distances, allowing the Amiga to control up to eight million digitally controlled external audio, lighting, automation, relay and voltage control channels spread around a large theme park, for example.

See Amiga software for more information on these applications.

Speeding up the low portion of memory is particularly useful on 6502 derived machines because that processor has a faster addressing mode for the first 256 bytes and so it is common for software to put any variables involved in time critical sections of program into that region.

Some clever program counter catches meant that the ordinary system ROMs and any software using the OS calls could function without significant modification, making substantially more memory available for BASIC, View, Viewsheet and almost every other business application.

Although cheap and effective in enabling use of some software that only used official ROM entry points for text output, this solution proved very slow because the Electron had to be placed into an 80-byte-pitch display to be able to get anywhere near to reproducing mode 7 and the CPU spent a lot of time drawing approximations of mode 7 characters and graphics that in a hardware solution would be achieved without any CPU processing.

A software ROM worked around this by duplicating the data intended for a mode 7 display in memory.

Although this produced a mode 7 that barely impacted upon CPU performance and gave the same visual quality as the BBC Micro, it remained compatible only with software that used the ROM routines for outputting text and graphics and still used 10 kB of memory for the display.

The 68000 has a 16-bit external data bus so must transfer 32 bits of data in two consecutive steps, a technique called multiplexing: all this is transparent to the software, which was 32-bit from the beginning.

* Text modes: 20 × 32, 40 × 25, 40 × 32, 80 × 25, 80 × 32 ( all text output produced by software in graphics modes )

Although the Aster was a clone of the TRS-80 model I it was in fact more compatible with the TRS-80 model III, and ran all the software of these systems including games.

Later however the Government turned around and gave 50 % of the order to Philips and their P2000 homecomputer even though the P2000 did not meet all the technical demands, was made in Austria and did not have network hard nor software.

An AD domain controller authenticates and authorizes all users and computers in a Windows domain type network — assigning and enforcing security policies for all computers and installing or updating software.

Soon after, BBS software was being written for all of the major home computer systems of the late 1970s era-the Apple II, Atari, Commodore and TRS-80 being some of the most popular.

At the time, nearly all use of computers required writing custom software, which was something only scientists and mathematicians tended to do.

According to the London IPO filings, the management team was Philippe Kahn as President, Spencer Ozawa as VP of Operations, Marie Bourget as CFO, and Spencer Leyton as VP of business development, while all software development was continuing to take place in Denmark and later London as the Danish co-founders moved there.

This situation has often been used strategically by software vendors to force customers to purchase upgrades since, over time, the number of data files usable by an old version diminishes at a rate proportional to the number of other customers that have upgraded ( assuming that all customers generate files at the same the average rate.

The key is different from all other keys in that it sends no scancodes at all on release ; therefore it is not possible for any software to determine whether this key is being held down.

The computer industry is made up of all of the businesses involved in developing computer software, designing computer hardware and computer networking infrastructures, the manufacture of computer components and the provision of information technology services including System Administration and Maintenance.

In computer science and software engineering, software is all information processed by computer system, programs and data.

Software can be patented in some but not all countries ; however, software patents can be controversial in the software industry with many people holding different views about it.

A person who creates software is called a programmer, software engineer, software developer, or " code monkey ", terms that all have a similar meaning.

In general, good programming is considered to be the measured application of all three, with the goal of producing an efficient and evolvable software solution ( the criteria for " efficient " and " evolvable " vary considerably ).
