An [Acronym] for __I__nput/__O__utput. This very broad term generally refers to a computer's act of communication with the outside world (which the machine's mass storage devices are also seen as part of), such as by reading characters from the keyboard or a file, writing a buffer to disk, displaying something on the screen, receiving or sending something via a [NIC], etc pp. It is easier to define this term by exclusion: any movement of data is [I/O] unless both source and destination lie in the same address space. See also: [BIOS]
