application
In general, an application is a program that helps you accomplish a specific task; for example, a word 
processing program, a spreadsheet program, or an FTP client. Applications should be distinguished from 
system programs, which control the computer and run applications, and utilities, which are small 
assistance programs. In Unified CCX, an application represents a configured combination of one or more 
triggers, a script, and the values for any parameter in that script.
Application Engine
A group of Java beans that can be combined in many ways to create applications such as Unified IP IVR. 
The Application Engine is the execution vehicle for all Unified CCX based applications including Cisco 
Unified Contact Center Express and Cisco Unified IP IVR scripts.
ASR
Automatic Speech Recognition. A technology that allows users of IVR systems to speak entries rather 
than enter numbers on a keypad.
