An action recognized by an object, such as clicking the mouse or pressing a key, and for which you can write code to respond. Events can occur as a result of a user action or program code, or they can be triggered by the system. .

An event is a trigger. When the event is set, it can be used for triggering a process and/or schedule. Crystal Info (formerly Crystal Info) enables you to set up two kinds of events

An action that causes a change in the processing flow of an application. Some events are associated with a user action, such as a mouse click or menu selection. Other events are associated with an action internal to the application, such as a screen exit. Events are classified by how and where they are triggered, such as the completion of a service request or an error in program execution.

In HomeSeer, an event is a grouping of two things - actions and a trigger. The trigger is what causes the event to be run, which is when the actions defined in it are carried out. Actions are the commands that you want carried out when the event runs such as turning on a light, sending an infrared signal, or downloading the latest weather forecast by running a script.

A happening or occurrence. The tossing of a coin is an event.

A client/server interaction defined from the standpoint of the server. The client stimulates the server to recognize an event by sending a message to the server. The server responds to the stimulus. ---- GHI ---- JKL ---- MNO

Something that happens, usually in response to user input. Examples are a user entering information, pressing a button or a selecting a value. In Microsoft Access, all code is "event driven" meaning it executes only in response to some event that serves as its trigger or "handle". Programmers must not only write effective code but also select the correct event to handle that code.

An event is a specific point in space-time, sometimes given a name for identification purposes. It is a way of describing what happens by saying when and where it happens. Each event has a unique space-time coordinate.

An occurrence associated with a service monitored by the Intelligent Agent. Users select the events they want to monitor for and register them with the Intelligent Agent.

An event is an incident or occurrence during the execution of a software application that indicates a change in the state of execution of the application. Events are commonly viewed in an OOA/D context as a message that announces the change in execution state and they are issued in the method where the new condition prevails as a postcondition of executing that method. (See category on state machines.)

1. A specific activity that has occurred on a channel. The voice driver reports channel activity to the application program in the form of events, which allows the program to identify and respond to a specific occurrence on a channel. Events provide feedback on the progress and completion of functions and indicate the occurrence of other channel activities. Events are sometimes referred to in general as termination events, because most of them indicate the end of an operation. 2. Any signal or condition that causes a state transition in a state machine, the majority of which are usually the physical events produced by the voice driver.

An occurrence that a computer can detect: a key stroke, a mouse click, a page loading. Events are often used as triggers to cause another action to occur.

A message that notifies a session when something has happened. Events often convey information about resources that have become active. They're are also used for other things, including self-notification, yielding timeslices to other sessions, and inter-session communication. Every event includes fields that are passed to its handler as parameters. see: dispatch, event fields, event handler, event handler parameters, immediate event, kernel, queued event, resource

A significant occurrence. An event has a location in time and space and may have parameters. In the context of state diagrams, an event is an occurrence that can trigger a state transition.

Events are the basic units of calendars that you create in Trumba Connect. An event is a seminar, performance, meeting, class, or any other occurrence that you want to publicize. You can add one-time, multi-day, or repeating events to your calendars, and you can mark events as private. To add an event to a calendar, click Add Event above the calendar. See also Add events to calendars.

In VisualAge RPG, a representation of a change that occurs to a part. The change enables other interested parts to receive notification when something about the part changes. For example, a push button generates an event by signalling that is has been clicked, which may cause another part to display a window. In the OfficeVision calendar function, an item scheduled on a single calendar (for only one attendee), which includes the time and description. In OSI, the occurrence of a well-defined situation. Events may be planned (for example, transactions), or they may be spontaneous or unplanned (for example, faults). An agent reports events to its managers. In System Manager, a significant occurrence, such as the end of processing or the failure of a subsystem.

The occurrence of an action on an object of interest.

An occurrence. (Events are objects hence they must be identifiable occurrences of interest.)

In the good ol' days, computers handled user interactions as input of batched data. The user fed a hunk of data in, the computer did something to that data, then produced the results. With the advent of interactive devices like the GUI interface, computers could display answers to computations onscreen. The input for these interactions are events caused by the user, which could be keystrokes, button clicks, or the position of the mouse pointer. (see Event Handler).

Events are the way in which GDK informs GTK+ about external events like pointer motion, button clicks, key presses, etc.

A thing which happens, like a button is pressed. Events can by low-level (such as button or keyboard events), or they can be high level (such as when a new dataset is available for processing).

Something done by a user, such as pressing a key, which causes a message to be sent to an object.

Any message sent from the device.

A MIDI event is merely a MIDI message of some kind. Sequencers often have their storage capacity specified as a certain number of events. As note on and note off commands are separate events, and after-touch or other messages may be involved, the maximum note capacity is likely to be less than half the maximum number of events that can be accommodated.
