... The particular variables it is concerned with are tick , which is the number of microseconds added to the system time during a clock interrupt, tickadj , which sets the slew rate and resolution used by the adjtime system call, and dosynctodr , which indicates to the kernels on some machines whether they should internally adjust the system clock to keep it in line with time-of-day clock or not. ... Set the kernel variable tickadj to an internally computed "optimal" value. -t tick . ...

In 1985, Grossman and Paulgrossmann-paul rigorously formulated some of these important ideas in terms of affine canonical coordinate transformations to a coherent space representation. ... In 1989 and early 1990, we formulated the chirplet transform, a multidimensional parameter space whose coordinate axes correspond to the pure parameters of planar affine coordinate transformations in the time-frequency plane. ...

... First of all, I should say that you cannot guarantee user-mode processes to have exact control of timing because of the multi-tasking nature of Linux. ... However, for most applications using I/O ports, this does not really matter. To minimise this, you may want to nice your process to a high-priority value (see the nice(2) manual page) or use real-time scheduling (see below). ... Linux 2.x kernels have soft real time support; see the manual page for sched_setscheduler(2) for details. ...

Miriad 's atlod task has an option, options=hires which converts a RPFITS file observed in high time resolution bin-mode into an apparently normal dataset with fine time resolution. ... In high resolution time mode, the time difference between consecutive integrations might be smaller than this tolerance. ... Miriad manager . ...

... Previous: Determination of Variable Time Delay in Uneven Data Sets . ... It is shown that the likeness of the periodogram and the LS-spectrum (both estimators of the power spectrum are widely used in the spectral analysis of time series), depends on the properties of the spectral window corresponding to the distribution of time points. ... Present day theory and practice of the spectral analysis of unequally spaced time series are based on two approaches. ...

To get any time that is not printed here, you can add, subtract, multiply and divided at will to get the desired time. i.e.) 2.5 min=2 min+30 sec= 456+114=570 so you would type in 570 for a 2.5 min exposure. You must be out of windows for these times to work. Scott J. Wolk . Mon Nov 25 15:41:03 EST 1996
