The invention with its state-of-the-art and innovative methods has established a time simulation phenomenon pertaining to celestial objects independently for (14) Universal Time (FIG. 1). The co-ordination between three celestial objects Earth, Moon, and Sun are the significant sources for back mapping and the method remains immaculate and perfect in ascertaining the Universal Time Co-Ordination (15). The invention has delivered the classified integrity while implementing the most impressive and innovative methods in bringing-out a novel concept (9) and (10) for Universal Time Simulation. The Universal Time (14) and Universal Time Co-ordination phenomenon provide a leap ahead in worldwide clocks and time regulation in which clocks would be (7) self-synchronizing based on specific locations. The location-specific Time would be incorporated to have a reality-based transition in the framework of Universal Time and Universal Time Co-Ordination that would benefit watch manufacturing industry massively (7). The invented method also provides a framework for high-level precision clocks in research labs to check their integrity in timescale (16). The pioneered method in this present invention would benefit space industry to the maximum possible extent (FIG. 4) with its limited kernel (3) memory usage statistics. The singularity in the definition of Universal Time (14) would enhance simultaneous space mission programs.

Universal Time and Universal Time Co-Ordination are key aspects in the following areas namely: Regulation of Clock and Time, World Wide Web, Network Time Protocol, International Broadcast, Weather Forecast, Air Traffic Control, Radio Stations, Space Technology.

A device having one or more processors, the one or more processors configured to acquire time information by performing one or more of a first acquisition operation to control a communicator to communicate with an external device to receive signals including the time information, and a second acquisition operation to control one or more radio wave receivers to receive transmission radio waves with signals including the time information.

Embodiments of the present disclosure describe automatically changing a time zone of a mobile device to a current time zone. The method detects a first event for a mobile device from a plurality of events. The plurality of events represents a possible time zone change from a first time zone. The method generates a time change value based on detection of the event. The method detects a subsequent event for the mobile device and modifies the time change value. The method determines the time change value exceeds a change threshold value and changes a time zone display of the mobile device from the first time zone to a second time zone based on at least one detected event for the mobile device.

A method and system for automatically updating a current time zone of a smart watch by using the smart watch to acquire longitude and latitude data corresponding to a current location of the smart watch and to provide the longitude and latitude data to a mobile terminal to generate time zone information that is then provided to the smart watch.

Methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer program products are provided for enabling devices to determine the time zone in which they are located. A mobile device may receive location information from one or more sources. Based thereon, the current location of the mobile device may be determined in terms of latitude and longitude. The indication of the current location may be converted to an index value according to a Hilbert curve (or other space-filling curve), and the index value applied to a time zone index file to determine the local time zone. A time zone setting of the mobile device may be updated accordingly. Furthermore, geofencing may be used by the mobile device to detect movement towards and through a time zone boundary, leading to a new time zone determination being initiated.

An electronic timepiece includes a communication unit receiving identification information for identifying a radio station from the radio station, a storage unit storing a database having, as a record, the identification information and time difference information indicating a time difference associated with the identification information, a timekeeping unit in which a set time difference being a time difference with respect to a reference time is set, a first time difference correction unit correcting the set time difference to the time difference information associated with the identification information received by the communication unit, an operation unit accepting user operation, a second time difference correction unit correcting the set time difference according to the operation, and an update processing unit updating the database by changing the time difference information to the set time difference corrected by the second time difference correction unit.

An electronic timepiece includes indicators, an operation receiving unit, a timing unit and a processor. The operation receiving unit receives an operation performed by a user. The timing unit counts a date and time at present. The processor carries out operation control of the indicators and obtains a local time setting based on a time difference between a predetermined standard time and a local time at a target position. The processor makes at least apart of the indicators display the local time in accordance with the operation received by the operation receiving unit and obtains the local time setting based on a difference between the displayed local time and the date and time counted by the timing unit.
