systems, device drivers, compilers, assemblers, linkers, and utilities.
Software libraries that perform generic functions also tend to be regarded as system
software. System software stored on non-volatile storage on integrated circuits is usually
termed firmware. These generally perform the background tasks in a computer. These
programs, many times, talk directly to the HW.
Application SW
