Terms related to product software
What is Product Software?
A Software Product is defined as
a packaged configuration of software components, or a software-based service with auxiliary
materials, which is released for and traded in a specific market
Examples:
ERP software
Bookkeeping package
Operating systems
Search-engine
Computer-aided-design
Software development environments
Hospital information system
…
Essentially all software you are using in daily life and work …
Key differences
1. Market introduction requires precise synchronization of dependable software engineering
activities
2. The same product requires installation and usage in different organizations, with different
hardware and software platforms
3. The vendor company stays owner of the software and auxiliary materials, while the usage
is licensed to the customers
