- Asynchronous circuit, a sequential digital logic circuit not governed by a clock circuit or signal
- Asynchronous communication, transmission of data without the use of an external clock signal
Asynchronous cellular automaton, a mathematical model of discrete cells which update their state independently
Asynchronous operation, a sequence of operations executed out of time coincidence with any event
Asynchronous I/O, an Input and Output operations that allow a program to continue executing other tasks without waiting for data to be transferred.

Asynchrony (game theory), when players in games update their strategies at different time intervals
Asynchronous learning, an educational method in which the teacher and student are separated in time
