synchronized clocks

Synchronized clocks are timekeeping devices kept aligned through a common reference or communication system, ensuring they display the same time accurately. This synchronization is crucial in contexts like telecommunications, navigation, and financial transactions, where precise timing matters. Techniques used include signals from atomic clocks, GPS satellites, or internet time servers, which send regular updates to correct any discrepancies. By maintaining synchronized clocks, organizations and systems can coordinate actions precisely, avoid errors, and operate efficiently across different locations.
