Executing pause operations on application, game or process

Pause refers to a temporary halt in time for some execution of a process.

As an example, the pause command used in DOS will stop playing audio or video, with the possibility to continue in the future (in the case of video: with a still image).

It may also refer to hardware used to initiate a pause such as the Pause/Break key (the secondary function of the PgUp key on some computer keyboards) and the Pause key or symbol on media players.
