Software has traditionally been way behind when it comes to utilizing hardware capabilities. Take for example the microprocessors: The DEC Alpha Processor is a true 64-bit processor and was commercially available in the early 90s (the processor with super-scalar technology Intel stole from them and settled out of court with DEC). How long has it taken the software industry to take full advantage of the hardware capabilities of a 64-bit processor? Nearly 10 years after and only to a limited extent. there are over 300 new innovations in the electronics industry annually. That's a lot for the software industry to keep up with.
What else can I help you with?
Electronic device to protect computer software?
use AVR . it will protect not only your software from being corrupted but also your hardware.
What makes computer hardware hard?
The term hardware likely came from it being physical materials such as tools or other items you'd find in a hardware store. "Hard" in this case could also refer to it being tangible items. Hardware is the physical parts of the computer that you can see, touch, etc. Software is more invisible and intangible. Media itself such as a CD, cassette tape, or memory stick is considered hardware, but the computer code and ideas encoded on such media are software.
Is there any retirement benefits for a computer hardware engineer?
you can still work, why? .... people at microsoft get fired from being over 50 from being software engineers
Is a excel hardware or software?
Originally a spreadsheet was on paper. Now we normally think of a spreadsheet as being a piece of software, such as Microsoft Excel.
Is assembler a hardware?
No, an assembler is not hardware; it is a software tool. An assembler translates assembly language, which is a low-level programming language, into machine code that a computer's hardware can execute. While it interacts closely with the hardware, it operates as a program running on a computer rather than being a physical component.
Why do you think a system software programs always loads on the computer first?
Because the system software sets up the hardware, and tells the computer what peripherals and drivers to use. Without the computer being 'aware' of what equipment is plugged into it - they will not function correctly.
What is the function of the administration?
The function of a network administrator is being responsible for the maintenance of computer hardware and software. That's one of the functions but there are a lot others

How does software interact with computers?
code execution via hardware support like cpu, gpu for games
Input is refer to what?
If you are talking hardware and not software "input" is in reference to information being added the computer, for instance a keyboard is an "input" device as it adds new information from an outside source (you or me) into the computer.
What is Softwere Computer?
computer can actually be divided into two parts. The first part, computer hardware, does all of the physical work computers are known for. The second part, computer software, tells the hardware what to do and how to do it. If you were to think of a computer as a living being, then the hardware would be the body that does things like seeing with eyes, lifting objects, and filling the lungs with air; the software would be the intelligence, interpreting the images that come through the eyes, telling the arms how to lift objects, and forcing the body to fill the lungs with air.
Is a hard disk an example of a software?
No, a hard disk is not an example of software; it is a type of hardware. A hard disk is a storage device used to store digital data, while software refers to programs and applications that run on a computer and perform specific tasks. The two work together, with software being stored on hardware like hard disks.
