It is assumed that an XML processor is doing its work on behalf of another module, called the application.

application

From Voice Extensible Markup Language (VoiceXML) Version 2.0 (2004-03-16) | Glossary for this source

application

From XPointer Framework (2003-03-25) | Glossary for this source

A software component that incorporates or uses an XPointer processor because it needs to access XML subresources. The occurrence and usage of XPointers, and the behavior to be applied to resources and subresources obtained by processing those XPointers, are governed by the definition of each application's corresponding data format (which could be XML-based or non-XML-based). For example, HTML Web browsers and XInclude processors are applications that might use XPointer processors.

application programming interface (API), conventional input/output/device API),

From User Agent Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 (2002-12-17) | Glossary for this source

An application programming interface (API) defines how communication may take place between applications. Implementing APIs that are independent of a particular operating environment (as are the W3C DOM Level 2 specifications) may reduce implementation costs for multi-platform user agents and promote the development of multi-platform assistive technologies. Implementing conventional APIs for a particular operating environment may reduce implementation costs for assistive technology developers who wish to interoperate with more than one piece of software running on that operating environment.A "device API" defines how communication may take place with an input or output device such as a keyboard, mouse, or video card.In this document, an "input/output API" defines how applications or devices communicate with a user agent. As used in this document, input and output APIs include, but are not limited to, device APIs. Input and output APIs also include more abstract communication interfaces than those specified by device APIs. A "conventional input/output API" is one that is expected to be implemented by software running on a particular operating environment. For example, the conventional input APIs of the target user agent are for the mouse and keyboard. For touch screen devices or mobile devices, conventional input APIs may include stylus, buttons, and voice. The graphical display and sound card are considered conventional output devices for a graphical desktop computer environment, and each has an associated API.
