Also known as Apps, this is a program or group of programs designed for end users. Apps are often referred to as "Software" and can be divided into two general classes: systems software and applications software. Systems software consists of low-level programs that interact with the computer at a very basic level. This includes operating systems, compilers, and utilities for managing computer resources.
In contrast, applications software (also called end-user programs) include database programs, word processors, and spreadsheets. Practically speaking, applications software resides above systems software, because it is unable to run without the operating system and system utilities.
