In 1989, Autodesk, an American multinational corporation that focuses on 2D and 3D design software, developed a virtual design system called Cyberspace.

The FSF recommends using the term " free software " rather than " open source software " because, as they state in a paper on Free Software philosophy, the latter term and the associated marketing campaign focuses on the technical issues of software development, avoiding the issue of user freedoms.

Open source criteria focuses on the availability of the source code and the ability to modify and share it, while Free software focus on the users freedom to use the program, to modify it, and to share it.

The upper floor, Golden Computer Centre (), mainly sells games and gaming software, while the lower floor, Golden Computer Arcade (), focuses on the sales of computer-oriented hardware.

This research-oriented campus focuses on precision metrology and intelligent manufacturing ; opto-electronics and optical communication ; and software and information technology.

This work focuses on checkpointing parallel applications that communicate through MPI, and on compatibility with the software suite produced by the SciDAC Scalable Systems Software ISIC.

EducationaLinux is an annual, open source conference in Australia that focuses primarily on Linux, but also other open source operating systems and software used in educational systems.

Installation testing is a kind of quality assurance work in the software industry that focuses on what customers will need to do to install and set up the new software successfully.

The source port modification focuses on changes in original source code ( mostly adding new features-like 3D renderers support, new graphic technologies usage or porting the game into other platform, which the original was not available for ), without editing the other resources of software.

grid. org was a website and online community established in 2001 that focuses on cluster computing and grid computing software for users.

Attachmate focuses on terminal emulation, legacy modernization, managed file transfer, and enterprise fraud management software.

Utility software usually focuses on how the computer infrastructure ( including the computer hardware, operating system, application software and data storage ) operates.

* ATLAS, control software used on the Pendolino train

AES is based on a design principle known as a substitution-permutation network, and is fast in both software and hardware.

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.

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.

The most basic solution was a pure software system supplied on a ROM cartridge that drew a low resolution approximation of the mode 7 display in a graphics mode.

* The program was stored as a linked list of lines ; a or took O ( n ) ( linear ) time, and although Applesoft programs were not very long compared to today's software, on a 1 MHz 6502 this could be a significant bottleneck.

The pupils could download software from the teachers computer through a network based on a fast serial connection, as well as sending back their work to the teachers computer.

Also the more interesting software offered for CP / M systems could not run well on a TRS-80.

Most of the engineers who designed the hardware and software of the Aster went on to design hardware and software for the ( then new ) MSX system for a company called " Micro Technology b. v .".

* A colour video card with sprite capability based on the same video chip ( the TMS9918 ) as the TI99 / 4 and MSX computers, designed for gaming, and more creative and colorful educational software.

* ABC ( Yet Another BitTorrent Client ), a free software, open source BitTorrent client based on BitTornado

They may also be in the user interface of the software or on a screen presented to the user during the installation process.

The 5200 was based on Atari Inc .' s existing 400 / 800 computers and the internal hardware was almost identical, although software was not directly compatible between the two systems.

When Nintendo revived the industry, they signed up software development companies to create NES games under a strict license agreement which imposed serious restrictions on what they were allowed to do.

Both BASICs differed from other dialects on different platforms, in that they allowed the easy creation of fairly demanding multimedia software, with full structured code and many high-level functions to load images, animations, sounds and display them in various ways.

Abstraction allows program designers to separate categories and concepts from instances of implementation, so that they do not depend on software or hardware.

In systems engineering it may involve black-box testing performed on a system ( for example: a piece of software, lots of manufactured mechanical parts, or batches of chemical products ) prior to its delivery.

User tests, which are usually performed by clients or end-users, do not normally focus on identifying simple problems such as spelling errors and cosmetic problems, nor showstopper defects, such as software crashes ; testers and developers previously identify and fix these issues during earlier unit testing, integration testing, and system testing phases.

However, there are resources available that facilitate this process by offering free instructions on how to draw a 3D beading diagram using free software available from inkscape. org, in the hopes that clearer beading diagrams will allow easier access to 3D beading patterns.

The first BBSes used homebrew software, quite often written or customized by the SysOps themselves, running on early S-100 microcomputer systems such as the Altair, IMSAI and Cromemco under the CP / M operating system.

Unless a caller was using terminal emulation software written for, and running on, the same type of system as the BBS, the session would simply fall back to simple ASCII output.

In the UK, the BBC Micro based OBBS software, available from Pace for use with their modems, optionally allowed for colour and graphics using the Teletext based graphics mode available on that platform.

A notable example was Phil Katz's PKARC ( and later PKZIP, using the same ". zip " algorithm that WinZip and other popular archivers now use ); also other concepts of software distribution like freeware, postcardware like JPEGview and donationware like Red Ryder for the Macintosh first appeared on BBS sites.
