Difference between Clock and Synchronization

Clock vs. Synchronization

A clock is an instrument to measure, keep, and indicate time. Synchronization is the coordination of events to operate a system in unison.

Similarities between Clock and Synchronization

Clock and Synchronization have 14 things in common (in Unionpedia): Atomic clock, Clock signal, Coordinated Universal Time, Global Positioning System, Marine chronometer, Microprocessor, Network Time Protocol, Phase-locked loop, Satellite navigation, Solar time, Time, Time ball, Time signal, Tuning fork.

Atomic clock

An atomic clock is a clock device that uses an electron transition frequency in the microwave, optical, or ultraviolet region of the electromagnetic spectrum of atoms as a frequency standard for its timekeeping element.

Clock signal

In electronics and especially synchronous digital circuits, a clock signal is a particular type of signal that oscillates between a high and a low state and is used like a metronome to coordinate actions of digital circuits.

Global Positioning System

The Global Positioning System (GPS), originally Navstar GPS, is a satellite-based radionavigation system owned by the United States government and operated by the United States Air Force.

Marine chronometer

A marine chronometer is a timepiece that is precise and accurate enough to be used as a portable time standard; it can therefore be used to determine longitude by means of celestial navigation.

Microprocessor

A microprocessor is a computer processor that incorporates the functions of a central processing unit on a single integrated circuit (IC), or at most a few integrated circuits.

Network Time Protocol

Network Time Protocol (NTP) is a networking protocol for clock synchronization between computer systems over packet-switched, variable-latency data networks.

Phase-locked loop

A phase-locked loop or phase lock loop abbreviated as PLL is a control system that generates an output signal whose phase is related to the phase of an input signal.

Satellite navigation

A satellite navigation or satnav system is a system that uses satellites to provide autonomous geo-spatial positioning.

Solar time

Solar time is a calculation of the passage of time based on the position of the Sun in the sky.

Time

Time is the indefinite continued progress of existence and events that occur in apparently irreversible succession from the past through the present to the future.

Time signal

A time signal is a visible, audible, mechanical, or electronic signal used as a reference to determine the time of day.

Tuning fork

A tuning fork is an acoustic resonator in the form of a two-pronged fork with the prongs (tines) formed from a U-shaped bar of elastic metal (usually steel).

Clock and Synchronization Comparison

Clock has 376 relations, while Synchronization has 82. As they have in common 14, the Jaccard index is 3.06% = 14 / (376 + 82).
