The reservation management system includes an input device and a reservation management unit. The input device includes a manual operation part movable between a first position and a second position and sends a wireless signal containing movement information of the manual operation part and ID information. The reservation management unit performs reservation management based on the wireless signal sent from the input device. The reservation management unit includes a clock unit, a storage unit, and a determination unit. The clock unit measures time. The storage unit associates reservation information containing a reservation start time, and the ID information with each other and stores them. The determination unit determines a reservation performance status based on a current time, the reservation start time, and the movement information.

Systems and methods are provided for the deterministic simulation of distributed systems, such as vehicle-based processing systems. A distributed system may be represented as a plurality of subsystems or “nodelets” executing with a single process of a computing device during a simulation. A simulated clock may be used during execution of the nodelets to mitigate the variability in timestamped data that may be caused by latency or jitter. In some embodiments, all timestamps generated during a given frame of work will be assigned the same time value, regardless of when within the frame the timestamps were generated. A task scheduler can update the value of the simulated clock as execution proceeds through different frames of work.

Examples described herein relate to multiple processor nodes which are physically separate with interfaces to a common network interface. A local processor can run a timing recovery algorithm, and tune the master timer to align with the network domain to cause the master timer and network timing domains to be in the same domain. A common master timer can be used to align time stamps of independent processor nodes. A processor node can use the common master timer as a reference and the processor does not need to communicate with another processor to synchronize its timer.

The present disclosure generally relates to a dynamic user interface having an indication of time. The dynamic user interface having the indication of time further includes one or more geometric regions that intersect the indication of time, such that colors of the indication of time are different on opposite sides of a boundary of the one or more geometric regions that intersect the indication of time. The one or more geometric regions may shift and/or change over time, thereby providing a custom and/or unique dynamic user interface having the indication of time.

A method for reception of a signal by a subscriber of a real-time network. The signal includes a signal clock having a signal clock frequency and the subscriber includes a counter, which has a counter clock with a counter clock frequency and which maps a local time of the subscriber. The method includes sampling the signal with a reception clock of a reception counter of the subscriber, the reception clock being derived from the counter clock, whereby the reception counter maps the local time of the subscriber, adapting a phase position of the reception clock to a phase position of the signal clock when said reception clock is derived from the counter clock, and sampling the signal at a reception clock frequency of the reception counter

A real-time clock module includes an oscillation circuit, a storage unit that stores adjustment data used to adjust an oscillation frequency of the oscillation circuit, a data abnormality determination circuit that compares first data based on the adjustment data with second data based on the adjustment data to determine whether or not at least one of the first data and the second data is abnormal, and a flag register that holds a data abnormality flag in which a first value indicating that the first data and the second data are normal, or a second value indicating that at least one of the first data and the second data is abnormal is set, based on a signal from the data abnormality determination circuit.

A pulse counting apparatus operating at a low power and an operation method thereof are provided. The pulse counting apparatus includes a pulse counter configured to count a number of pulses inputted from outside of the pulse counting apparatus and generate an interrupt signal; a timer unit configured to generate a wake-up signal according to a preset time; a real time clock (RTC) configured to serve as a clock of the pulse counter and the timer unit; and a processor configured to switch from a sleep mode to an active mode when the interrupt signal or the wake-up signal is generated.
