People locked their shopping carts with strange keys, tracked their own parking times with personal paper clocks and precisely obeyed speed limits.
Another award winner, Shirley Lazarus Toran's "Sacred Shrine," is an elaborate, pagoda-like structure, beautifully fashioned of cut and painted paper, with clock hands for finials.
When a scientist ponders such a question, he or she sits by the window with a pencil, paper and clock and records the number of passing cars in each minute interval throughout the day.
In this paper, each clock is regarded as a node in the network system, and based on the definition of different topological structures of a distributed system, the three control algorithms of time synchronization under the following three cases are designed: without a master clock (reference clock), with a master clock (reference clock), and with a fixed communication delay in the network system.
It was a time of relative peace, unity and prosperity, during which China's territories expanded, new trade routes (like the Silk Road) were opened up, while growing technological and scientific sophistication led to the invention and use of paper, water clocks and various astronomical instruments.
We believe government is populated by paper-pushers, clock-watchers and pension-anticipators who wake up in the morning thinking about how little they can do, how much they can get away with.
In this paper, an appropriate clock model is proposed to constrain the satellite clock estimates in order to improve the accuracy of satellite orbits.
A paper describing the clock will appear in the journal Science.
In this paper, a novel clock tree synthesizer is proposed for performance improvement.
This paper describes a clock network design methodology that optimizes register placement.
