Speaking of definitions, what term are folks using to describe the
collection of messages that occur when an operation is invoked.  For the
typical input/output operations you would have 2, a request and a
response. In a one-way you would have 1, in a solicit response you would
have n etc.  

What moniker would y'all recommend for this collection:

1.  Exchange
2.  Conversation
3. ???

Something that indicates the fact that these messages are part of the
same operation is the critical part for me.

Thanks.
