Discovered in the 1970s, circadian clocks are essential for the regulation of biological time in most cells in the human body. These internal mechanisms adjust biological processes to a 24-hour cycle, ...

With increased clock domains in modern ASICs, clock-domain crossing (CDC) has become ubiquitous, indispensable, and essential. Of course, timing is always an issue. High clock speeds and delays in ...

Circadian clocks, which regulate the metabolic functions of all living beings over a period of about 24 hours, are one of the most fundamental biological mechanisms. In humans, their disruption is the ...

Here on Earth, it might not matter if your wristwatch runs a few seconds slow. But crucial spacecraft functions need accuracy down to one billionth of a second or less. Navigating with GPS, for ...

The Global Positioning System (GPS), the Internet and many defense-critical applications for example—demand exceptionally precise time and frequency standards. Today’s systems, however, rely on 1950s ...

Fixing out of sync VM clocks may be a bit annoying, but it's 100 percent doable. Here's how. One of the nice things about Hyper-V is that you usually don't have to worry about setting virtual machine ...

We originally discussed how clock synchronization works on the Bloomberg Terminal in September 2016. At that time, we had solutions in place for U.S. broker compliance with FINRA Rule 7430. These ...

Precision time is ubiquitous today thanks to GPS and WWVB. Even your Macbook or smartphone displays time which is synchronized to the NIST-F1 clock, a cesium fountain atomic clock (aka the ‘Atomic ...

Time appeared to skip a beat last week when some of the world’s most accurate clocks were affected by a wind-induced power ...
