self-synchronous timer
1Power-on self-test — (POST) is the common term for a computer, router or printer s pre boot sequence. The same basic sequence is present on all computer architectures. It is the first step of the more general process called initial program load (IPL), booting, or… …
2Asynchronous cellular automaton — Cellular automata, as with other multi agent system models, usually treat time as discrete and state updates as occurring synchronously. The state of every cell in the model is updated together, before any of the new states influence other cells …
