Kristoffer started by providing a brief overview of time and clocks, presenting issues such as resolution, precision, accuracy and drift. The presentation continued with some examples, which led to motivate the need to support high-precision distributed time: - Time synchronized events in distributed control systems; - Sensors with high-precision timestamps for monitoring physical processes; - Applications in robotics, process automation, smart grid applications, etc.engother10.1145/3241950.3241966
