    There are two types of violation that can be caused by clock skew. One problem is caused when the clock reaches the first register and the clock signal towards the second register travels slower than output of the first register into the second register - the output of the first register reaches the second register input faster and therefore is clocked replacing the initial data on the second ...

    The assumption that the contents of short-term or working memory decay over time, unless decay is prevented by rehearsal, goes back to the early days of experimental research on short-term memory. [ 43 ] [ 44 ] It is also an important assumption in the multi-component theory of working memory. [ 45 ]
