from the Plum Voice IVR Glossary Input refers to a point in a
device, process, or channel that accepts data communications
exchanged between information processing systems and the outside
world. Inputs are data signals that are received by the system,
typically from another system, that are used to communicate with
a computer. An input inserted in to a system will either
activate or modify a currently occurring process. The concept of
input can be attached to many process and systems, including an
input field, an input variable, an input parameter, and an input
value. The term input indicates that external data will be
submitted via an outside system that will be received and
processed in order to create, modify, or alter a new or ongoing
process. |© 2013 The Plum Group, Inc.|
