type-ahead

    The facility where the user can type more
   characters before the system has fully responded to those
   already typed.  Type-ahead is common on most current systems.
   It allows the user to type without worrying that the computer
   may miss input because it is temporarily busy,
   e.g. reformating a page, checking spelling, or simply
   suffering from network latency.  There is usually some limit
   to the amount of input the system can buffer, beyond which it
   __will__ lose input.

   [Equivalent term for speech recognition?]
