Machine-dependent is a term for application software that runs only on a particular type of computer. Conversely, applications that run on a variety of different types of computers are called machine-independent.Prior to deploying machine-dependent applications on non-native computer architectures or operating systems, the application in question usually undergoes porting. This process involves writing (or re-writing) the application's computer code to suit the target architecture or operating system.
