Synchronous

Relating to or being a satellite that orbits a celestial body at a speed that matches the bodys rotation thus remaining stationary as observed from the bodys surface.

Synchronous. Having identical period and phase. In other words two synchronous tasks must be aware of one another and one task must execute in some way that is dependent on the other such as wait to start until the other task has completed. Synchronous means agreed timing for the sending of ones and zeroes bits that is the transmit and receive sides of the communications circuit have bothered to coordinate synchronize their signal and have agreed just what a digital bit encoded into the signal looks like. Of relating to or operating using fixed time intervals controlled by a clock opposed to asynchronous.

Synchronous or synchronized means connected or dependent in some way. Synchronous however 15 itself suggests only that the synchronous indicator variables be exchangeable. The rotation period is exactly equal to an integral number of ac cycles. In general synchronous pronounced sihn kro nuhs from greek syn meaning with and chronos meaning time is an adjective describing objects or events that are coordinated in time.

Going on at the same rate and exactly together. Contemporary contemporaneous coeval synchronous simultaneous coincident mean existing or occurring at the same time. A synchronous electric motor is an ac motor in which at steady state the rotation of the shaft is synchronized with the frequency of the supply current. Students and instructors are online at the same time in synchronous classes since lectures discussions and presentations take place at specific hours.

In information technology the term has several different usages. Having the same frequency and zero phase difference. From the cambridge english corpus it is easy to see that sequential composition of synchronous and output delayed functions yields functions of the same respective class. All students must be online at that exact time in order to participate in the class.
