Part of the Peripherals glossary: ASIO (Audio Stream Input/Output), developed by Steinberg, is a cross-platform, multi-channel audio transfer protocol that is being adopted by many of the manufacturers of audio/MIDI sequencing applications. It allows software to have access to the multi-channel capabilities of a wide range of powerful sound cards.

It is an early phase of the design process, in which the broad outlines of function and form of s are articulated. It includes the design of interactions, experiences, processes and strategies.
Design concepts in architecture 3 Like SchÃ¶n and Gero, this research focuses on creative design and not on re-design. Further, the focus is on architectural design as opposed to design in mechanical or system engineering. The motivation for the research stems from the observation that architects use conceptual frameworks that do not necessarily derive from a specific design setting. Concepts from domains extraneous to design are used as well. The paradigm
