event-driven
Responds to occurrences
Event-driven describes systems or processes that respond to occurrences rather than following a predetermined sequence.
In computing, event-driven programming waits for user actions or signals—a click, a keystroke, a message—then executes code in response: The interface is entirely event-driven.
The term extends to any reactive approach: an event-driven investment strategy.
