  • Text 5 Software
    Text 5 Software Software, consisting of programs, enables a computer to perform specific tasks, as opposed to its physical components (hardware) which can only do the tasks they are mechanically designed for. 5.1 Categories of Software Two general categories of software are showed in Figure I-5-1. Figure I-5-1 Categories of Software Other examples of software include: • Programming languages define the syntax and semantics of computer programs. For example, Pascal, C, C++, VB/VB.NET, C#, Java, etc. • Middleware controls and co-ordinates distributed systems. Middleware is computer software that connects software components or some people and their applications. The software consists of a set of services that allows multiple processes running on one or more machines to interact. This technology evolved to provide for interoperability in support of the move to coherent distributed architectures, which are most often used to 51 Part I Knowledge Points（第一部分 知识点） support and simplify complex distributed applications. It includes web servers, application servers, and similar tools that support application development and delivery. Middleware is especially integral to modern information technology based on XML, SOAP, Web services, and service-oriented architecture. • Testware is software for testing hardware or a software package. Generally speaking, Testware is a sub-set of software with a special purpose, that is, for software testing, especially for software testing automation. Testware is produced by both verification and validation testing methods. • Firmware is low-level software often stored on electrically programmable memory devices. Firmware is given its name because it is treated like hardware and run (“executed”) by other software programs.

  • RESUMEN Esta Tesis, Enfoca Básicamente Lo Referente Al Valor
    UNIVERSIDAD DE CUENCA RESUMEN Esta tesis, enfoca básicamente lo referente al valor probatorio de los documentos electrónicos en la Legislación Ecuatoriana, pues para que un documento electrónico sea considerado prueba debe cumplir ciertos requisitos como inalterabilidad, autenticidad y no repudio, estos entre los principales. Se aborda además la importancia que tiene el uso de la Firma Electrónica Avanzada, que no hace otra cosa que garantizar la autenticidad de quien suscribe el documento. Analizamos también lo atinente al Contrato Electrónico, que se ha constituido en el resultado del Comercio Electrónico, nueva forma de negociación que apareció décadas a tras pero que empieza a tomar fuerza preponderante en las relaciones mercantiles. Sistematizamos el ordenamiento jurídico con el que cuenta el Ecuador y relacionado con el Documento Electrónico, cuerpos legales tales como la Ley de Comercio Electrónico, Firmas Electrónicas y Mensajes de Datos del Ecuador, con su respectivo reglamento, que observan y dan pautas plenas referentes a los documentos electrónicos, y normas como las contenidas en el Código Orgánico de la Función Judicial, Código de Procedimiento Civil, entre otras citadas consultadas, que colaboran para guiar de manera eficiente el ejercicio procesal del derecho informático. Se incluye también todo lo referente a las consideraciones que la Norma Suprema hace en relación a las TICs (Tecnologías de la Comunicación y la Información). Alumna: Marcia Fernanda Cedillo Díaz 1 UNIVERSIDAD DE CUENCA Para finalizar se hacen algunas sugerencias y conclusiones en referencia con el tema abordado en la presente tesis, recalcando el compromiso permanente de las Universidades para la enseñanza adecuada del Derecho Informático. Palabras Claves: Prueba Electrónica, TICS, Valor Probatorio, Consideraciones Constitucionales, Requisitos, Contrato Electrónico, Documento Público, Documento Privado.
