Time-sensitive networks (TSN) in Ethernet are improving computer-based measurements from sub-microsecond to sub-nanosecond precision. By using message-based protocols that synchronize clocks, it is ...

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 ...

The IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol enables precise time synchronization over the packet-based Ethernet network so that the time on a slave clock at one end of the network agrees with a master clock ...

If time is money, then what is the value of a nanosecond (billionth of a second)? Well, if you are building a large network of distributed applications, it could mean a ten percent improvement in ...

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 ...

If your company's computer clocks aren't in sync, forensics, backups, and much more can suffer. Simson Garfinkel on getting the time right. Is the clock on every computer system in your organization ...
