From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (05 January 2017) [foldoc]:
16-bit application
Software for MS-DOS or {Microsoft
Windows} which originally ran on the 16-bit Intel 8088 and
80286 microprocessors. These used a {segmented address
space} to extend the range of addresses from what is possible
with just a 16-bit address. Programs with more than 64
kilobytes of code or data therefore had to waste time
switching between segments. Furthermore, programming with
segments is more involved than programming in a {flat address
space}, giving rise to warts like memory models in C and
C++.
Compare 32-bit application.
