Software engine
In computer science, a software engine refers to the core of a computer program . Software engines drive the functionality of the program, and are distinct from peripheral aspects of the program, such as look and feel . [ edit ] Elucidation The term Engine when used to describe a piece of software is frequently used by developers when speaking to a wider, layman audience, to describe what they would otherwise refer to as library , platform , SDK or object , to denote an encapsulated block of functionality. The term most frequently shows up in marketing material that need to describe software internals, as well as in product names.
