2. Computing platform - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computing_platform

   For example, in a single computer system, this would be the computer's architecture, operating system (OS), and runtime libraries. [2] In the case of an application program or a computer video game , the most relevant layer is the operating system, so it can be called a platform itself (hence the term cross-platform for software that can be ...

3. Computer hardware - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_hardware

   The storage of computer programs is key to the operation of modern computers and is the connection between computer hardware and software. [7] Even prior to this, in the mid-19th century mathematician George Boole invented Boolean algebra —a system of logic where each proposition is either true or false.

7. Computer architecture - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_architecture

   The earliest computer architectures were designed on paper and then directly built into the final hardware form. [12] Later, computer architecture prototypes were physically built in the form of a transistor–transistor logic (TTL) computer—such as the prototypes of the 6800 and the PA-RISC—tested, and tweaked, before committing to the ...

8. System software - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_software

   It provides a platform (hardware abstraction layer) to run high-level system software and application software. A kernel is the core part of the operating system that defines an application programming interface for applications programs (including some system software) and an interface to device drivers.

9. Operating system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operating_system

   The operating system provides an interface between an application program and the computer hardware, so that an application program can interact with the hardware only by obeying rules and procedures programmed into the operating system. The operating system is also a set of services which simplify development and execution of application programs.
