The event loop almost always operates asynchronously with the message originator. When the event loop forms the central control flow construct of a program, as it often does, it may be termed the main loop or main event loop. This title is appropriate, because such an event loop is at the highest level of control within the program.
Node.js uses an event loop for concurrent I/O, instead of processes or threads. [59] In contrast to other event-driven servers, [which?] Node.js's event loop does not need to be called explicitly. Instead, callbacks are defined, and the server automatically enters the event loop at the end of the callback definition.
Event-driven programming is the dominant paradigm used in graphical user interfaces applications and network servers. In an event-driven application, there is generally an event loop that listens for events and then triggers a callback function when one of those events is detected.

Event propagation models, such as bubbling, capturing, and pub/sub, define how events are distributed and handled within a system. Other key aspects include event loops, event queueing and prioritization, event sourcing, and complex event processing patterns. These mechanisms contribute to the flexibility and scalability of event-driven systems ...
Event bubbling is a type of DOM event propagation [1] where the event first triggers on the innermost target element, and then successively triggers on the ancestors (parents) of the target element in the same nesting hierarchy till it reaches the outermost DOM element or document object [2] (Provided the handler is initialized). It is one way ...
The windowing system places messages indicating user or other events, such as timer ticks or messages sent by other threads, into the message queue. The GUI application removes these events one at a time by calling a routine called getNextEvent() or similar in an event loop, and then calling the appropriate application routine to process that ...
