  2. Sleep onset latency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleep_onset_latency

    Instead, he suggests testing sleep onset latency during the day, ideally at 10:00 a.m., 12:30 p.m. and 3:00 p.m. A sleep onset latency of 0 to 5 minutes indicates severe sleep deprivation, 5 to 10 minutes is "troublesome", 10 to 15 minutes indicates a mild but "manageable" degree of sleep debt, and 15 to 20 minutes is indicative of "little or ...

  3. Delay calculation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delay_calculation

    A common file format for storing the lookup tables is the Liberty [2] [3] format. A very simple model called the K-factor model is sometimes used. This approximates the delay as a constant plus k times the load capacitance. A more complex model called Delay Calculation Language, [4] or DCL, calls a user-defined program whenever a delay value is ...

  4. Latency (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latency_(engineering)

    Latency, from a general point of view, is a time delay between the cause and the effect of some physical change in the system being observed. Lag, as it is known in gaming circles, refers to the latency between the input to a simulation and the visual or auditory response, often occurring because of network delay in online games. [1]

  5. What is ‘Sleep Opportunity’? And How Do I Calculate It? - AOL

    It’s a commitment you make every time your alarm goes off: “Don’t worry, body. Tonight, I promise to get eight hours of sleep.” But according to Matthew Walker, director of UC Berkeley’s ...

  6. Multiple Sleep Latency Test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_Sleep_Latency_Test

    The Multiple Sleep Latency Test (MSLT) is a sleep disorder diagnostic tool. It is used to measure the time elapsed from the start of a daytime nap period to the first signs of sleep, called sleep latency. The test is based on the idea that the sleepier people are, the faster they will fall asleep.

  7. Propagation delay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propagation_delay

    An electromagnetic wave travelling through a medium has a propagation delay determined by the speed of light in that particular medium, or ca. 1 nanosecond per 29.98 centimetres (11.80 in) in a vacuum. An electric signal travelling through a wire has an propagation delay of ca. 1 nanosecond per 15 centimetres (5.9 in). [1]

  8. Retarded time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retarded_time

    Position vectors r and r′ used in the calculation. Retarded time t r or t′ is calculated with a "speed-distance-time" calculation for EM fields.. If the EM field is radiated at position vector r′ (within the source charge distribution), and an observer at position r measures the EM field at time t, the time delay for the field to travel from the charge distribution to the observer is |r ...

  9. Time constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_constant

    First order LTI systems are characterized by the differential equation + = where τ represents the exponential decay constant and V is a function of time t = (). The right-hand side is the forcing function f(t) describing an external driving function of time, which can be regarded as the system input, to which V(t) is the response, or system output.
