    Re: portable

    When used to describe hardware, portable means small and lightweight. A portable computer is a computer small enough to carry. Portable computers include notebook and subnotebook computers, hand-held computers, palmtops, and PDAs.

    When used to describe software, portable means that the software has the ability to run on a variety of computers. Portable and machine independent mean the same thing—that the software does not depend on a particular type of hardware.

    Re: portable

    In computer science, porting is the process of adapting software to an executable program you can create a computing environment that is different from that for which it was originally designed (eg different CPU, operating system or third party library ). The term is also used when the software / hardware is changed to make them usable in different environments.

    The software is portable when the cost of porting to a new platform is less than the cost of writing from the beginning. Lower the cost of porting software, relative to the cost of implementation, the more portable than is said.
