Topic: Platform (computing)


  
 Platform (computing) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In computing, a platform describes some sort of framework, either in hardware or software, which allows software to run.
Typical platforms include a computer's architecture, operating system, or programming languages and their runtime libraries.
Pure assembly language can be run on this hardware platform, but most commonly, operating system software is written to target the hardware platform, but in doing so, becomes a platform in itself, facilitating the running of other software that is used to target the operating system, and likewise the hardware architecture.
