  2. 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.

  3. Wireless ad hoc network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_ad_hoc_network

    High latency time in route finding. Excessive flooding can lead to network clogging. [57] However, clustering can be used to limit flooding. The latency incurred during route discovery is not significant compared to periodic route update exchanges by all nodes in the network. Example: Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector Routing (AODV)

  4. Nerve conduction study - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nerve_conduction_study

    There are two types of latency taken into account during the study: onset latency and peak latency. [11] Onset latency is the time it takes for the electrical stimulus to trigger an action potential in the nerve. [11] Peak latency is a representation of the time delay for the signal to travel down the "majority of the axons" in the nerve. [11]

  5. Real-time operating system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real-time_operating_system

    Real-time operating systems are event-driven and preemptive, meaning the OS can monitor the relevant priority of competing tasks, and make changes to the task priority. Event-driven systems switch between tasks based on their priorities, while time-sharing systems switch the task based on clock interrupts .

  6. Network delay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_delay

    Graphical depiction of contributions to network delay. Network delay is a design and performance characteristic of a telecommunications network.It specifies the latency for a bit of data to travel across the network from one communication endpoint to another.

    Latency (engineering), a measure of the time delay experienced by a system Latency (audio), the delay between the moment an audio signal is triggered and the moment it is produced or received; Mechanical latency

  9. Latency (audio) - Wikipedia

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

    Latency refers to a short period of delay (usually measured in milliseconds) between when an audio signal enters a system, and when it emerges.Potential contributors to latency in an audio system include analog-to-digital conversion, buffering, digital signal processing, transmission time, digital-to-analog conversion, and the speed of sound in the transmission medium.
