asynchronous operation

Other Definitions
asynchronous operation (dict)

In telecommunication, the term asynchronous operation or asynchronous working is a sequence of operations in which operations are executed out of time coincidence with any event. It can also be an operation that occurs without a regular or predictable time relationship to a specified event; e.g., the calling of an error diagnostic routine that may receive control at any time during the execution of a computer program.
