  2. End-user computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End-user_computing

    End-user computing ( EUC) refers to systems in which non-programmers can create working applications. [1] EUC is a group of approaches to computing that aim to better integrate end users into the computing environment. These approaches attempt to realize the potential for high-end computing to perform problem-solving in a trustworthy manner.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End-user_development

    End-User Development can be defined as a set of methods, techniques, and tools that allow users of software systems, who are acting as non-professional software developers, at some point to create, modify or extend a software artifact. Ko et al. propose the following definition: [13]

  4. End user - Wikipedia

    These third-party components comprise a vast body of work and may include both kernel modules and user applications and libraries. Linux vendors and communities combine and distribute the kernel, GNU components, and non-GNU components, with additional package management software in the form of Linux distributions.

  6. Artifact (software development) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artifact_(software...

    In end-user development an artifact is either an application or a complex data object that is created by an end-user without the need to know a general programming language. Artifacts describe automated behavior or control sequences, such as database requests or grammar rules, or user-generated content. Artifacts vary in their maintainability.

  7. Application software - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Application_software

    Application software. An application program ( software application, or application, or app for short) is a computer program designed to carry out a specific task other than one relating to the operation of the computer itself, [1] typically to be used by end-users. [2] Word processors, media players, and accounting software are examples.

    t. e. A user is a person who utilizes a computer or network service. A user often has a user account and is identified to the system by a username (or user name ). [a] Some software products provide services to other systems and have no direct end users .

  9. Parallel computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_computing

    Parallel computing. Large supercomputers such as IBM's Blue Gene/P are designed to heavily exploit parallelism. Parallel computing is a type of computation in which many calculations or processes are carried out simultaneously. [1] Large problems can often be divided into smaller ones, which can then be solved at the same time.
