Input-process-output (I-P-O) is a structured methodology for capturing and visualizing all of the inputs, outputs, and process steps that are required to transform inputs into outputs.

Mechanical control systems (staplers, car windows) use parts for movement/force control. They include input, process, and output. Types of motion: linear, rotary, reciprocating, oscillating.

"Input, processing and output are the main functions of what a computer has to do. I’d say that the game makes it simpler to understand how a computer works and how the input affects the output ...

All systems can be understood using an input-process-output (IPO) model, and the system we call “innovation” is no exception. This model is likely familiar to you from information technology ...
