How does computer software and hardware work together? This is kind of a complex question. I think the most important thing connecting software and hardware would probably be the register. Commands or services requested by the software are encoded into binary values of 0’s and 1’s and are written into a register. For example‚ some register may hold a value of "01101100". This encoding has a total of 8 bits. Each value of either 0 or 1 is called a bit‚ and 8 bits are called a byte. At the hardware

a sequential design process‚ often used in software development processes‚ in which progress is seen as flowing steadily downwards (like a waterfall) through the phases of Conception‚ Initiation‚ Analysis‚ Design‚Construction‚ Testing and Maintenance. The waterfall development model originates in the manufacturing and constructionindustries; highly structured physical environments in which after-the-fact changes are prohibitively costly‚ if not impossible. Since no formal software developmentmethodologies existed
