  2. Leap second - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leap_second

    Screenshot of the UTC clock from time.gov during the leap second on 31 December 2016.. A leap second is a one-second adjustment that is occasionally applied to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), to accommodate the difference between precise time (International Atomic Time (TAI), as measured by atomic clocks) and imprecise observed solar time (), which varies due to irregularities and long-term ...

  3. Clock skew - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clock_skew

    Clock skew (sometimes called timing skew) is a phenomenon in synchronous digital circuit systems (such as computer systems) in which the same sourced clock signal arrives at different components at different times due to gate or, in more advanced semiconductor technology, wire signal propagation delay. The instantaneous difference between the ...

  4. Clock rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clock_rate

    Clock rate or clock speed in computing typically refers to the frequency at which the clock generator of a processor can generate pulses used to synchronize the operations of its components. [1] It is used as an indicator of the processor's speed. Clock rate is measured in the SI unit of frequency hertz (Hz).

    On 4 February 2019, in order to accommodate a new time slot focusing on youth programmes from BBC Three, the shortened format was adopted on a nightly basis. The programme was re-extended during the 2019 general election and during part of the COVID-19 pandemic it was extended back to its 45-minute format, with Newsnight moving to 10:45 pm on ...

  6. Time clock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_clock

    Electronic time clock. A time clock, sometimes known as a clock card machine, punch clock, or time recorder, is a device that records start and end times for hourly employees (or those on flexi-time) at a place of business. In mechanical time clocks, this was accomplished by inserting a heavy paper card, called a time card

  7. MIDI timecode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIDI_timecode

    The following ID of 01 identifies this is a time code type message, and the second 01 indicates it is a full-time code message. The 4 bytes of time code follow. Although MIDI is generally little-endian, the 4 time code bytes follow in big-endian order, followed by a F7 "end of exclusive" byte.

  9. Time dilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_dilation

    The coordinate time is the time that would be read on a hypothetical "coordinate clock" situated infinitely far from all gravitational masses (=), and stationary in the system of coordinates (=). The exact relation between the rate of proper time and the rate of coordinate time for a clock with a radial component of velocity is:
