Starting with a handful of software contractors who produced specialized programs for the few existing machines, the industry grew to include producers of corporate software packages and then makers of mass-market products and recreational software. This book tells the story of each of these types of firm, focusing on the products they developed, the business models they followed, and the markets they served." "By describing the breadth of this industry, Martin Campbell-Kelly corrects the popular misconception that one firm is at the center of the software universe. He also tells the story of lucrative software products such as IBM's CICS and SAP's R/3, which, though little known to the general public, lie at the heart of today's information infrastructure."--Jacket. 410 0$aHistory of computing. 606 $aComputer software industry$xHistory 615 0$aComputer software industry$xHistory. 676 $a338.4/70053 700 $aCampbell-Kelly$b Martin$0481461 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910819208403321 996 $aFrom airline reservations to Sonic the Hedgehog$9253936 997 $aUNINA
