In the frame in which the clock is at rest (see left part of the diagram), the light pulse traces out a path of length 2L and the time period between the ticks of the clock is equal to 2L divided by the speed of light c:

  8. Instructions per second - Wikipedia

    Instructions per second (IPS) is a measure of a computer's processor speed. For complex instruction set computers (CISCs), different instructions take different amounts of time, so the value measured depends on the instruction mix; even for comparing processors in the same family the IPS measurement can be problematic.
