People who use modern general purpose computers ( as opposed to embedded systems, analog computers and supercomputers ) usually see three layers of software performing a variety of tasks: platform, application, and user software.

For instance, if a user is designing a Microsoft Windows desktop application, he / she might use the. NET Windows Forms library to design the desktop application and call its APIs like Form1. Close () and Form1. Show () to close or open the application and write the additional operations him / herself that it need to have.

Some languages, like Ada, Modula-3, and C ++/ CLI allow both garbage collection and manual memory management to co-exist in the same application by using separate heaps for collected and manually managed objects ; others, like D, are garbage collected but allow the user to manually delete objects and also entirely disable garbage collection when speed is required.

: An external interface can be either a user interface ( e. g., typically for a database administrator ), or an application programming interface ( API ) used for communication between an application program and the DBMS.

Another practical application is to the design of user interfaces.

For example, when a web server is required to customize the content of a web page for a user, the web application may have to track the user's progress from page to page.

), this front machine is not the application server and it has to decipher data, solutions have to be found to propagate user authentication information or certificate to the application server, which needs to know who is going to be connected.

As applet inherits from container, it has largely the same user interface possibilities as an ordinary Java application, including regions with user specific visualization.

Based on the same Gecko layout engine as Mozilla Firefox, K-Meleon uses native Windows application programming interface ( API ) to create the user interface, instead of using Mozilla's cross-platform XML User Interface Language ( XUL ) layer, and as a result, is tightly integrated into the look and feel of the Windows desktop ; this approach is similar to that of Galeon and Epiphany ( for the GNOME desktop ), and Camino ( for Mac OS X ).

The filter response can also be completely characterized in the frequency domain by its transfer function, which is the Fourier transform of the impulse response h. Typical filter design goals are to realize a particular frequency response, that is, the magnitude of the transfer function ; the importance of the phase of the transfer function varies according to the application, inasmuch as the shape of a waveform can be distorted to a greater or lesser extent in the process of achieving a desired ( amplitude ) response in the frequency domain.

ApplicationMaster is unusual in its approach to application design in that it focuses on the user session as if it were running in a single conversational process, completely hiding the complexity of maintaining state across user interactions.

One option is to remove the kernel completely and program directly to the hardware, but then the entire machine would be dedicated to the application being written ( and, conversely, the entire application codebase would be dedicated to that machine ).
