Write a brief paragraph explaining “asynchronous mechanism” following these steps:

  1. Term: Clearify state the term

    A way to organize tasks which allows them to execute independently of the main execution flow

  2. Class: Identify the general category it belongs to

    Computing process

  3. Differentiation: Describe what makes it unique within that category

    Unlike synchronous operations, which execute tasks one by one and block further execution until completion, asynchronous mechanisms enable non-blocking execution, improving efficiency and responsiveness.

  4. Context/Examples: Provide context or examples to further clarify the term

    This approach is widely used in event-driven programming and network requests. For example, in JavaScript, the async/await syntax and Promises allow non-blocking operations like fetching data from an API without freezing the user interface, and response to user actions with instant feedbacks.
