Asynchronous

Definition: Asynchronous refers to a communication method or operation that does not occur at the same time or in a synchronized manner.

Examples

1. Noun:

In computer programming, asynchronous functions allow other tasks to be executed while waiting for a particular operation to be completed. For example, downloading a file from the internet asynchronously enables the user to continue using the application without having to wait for the download to finish.

2. Adjective:

An asynchronous process is one in which each step can be initiated and executed independently, without waiting for the completion of previous steps. For instance, an asynchronous circuit design allows for faster and more efficient data processing.

3. Adverb:

The software application was designed to process data asynchroniously, enabling it to handle multiple tasks simultaneously.
