On Ship Networks, You Know?
On ship networks, it turns out a moving a bit on ship is actually slower in term of velocity. Once you go off ship and you're on a good el c transmission line or an optical fibre, ah, you're tipically runing at about half the speed of light. And that's essential latency. But some of it is sort of lazy with modularity. Some people still use what i prefer to as brute force synchronizers to cross clock domains. Those those in moderntechnologies can easily cost five or ten clocks just across one clock domain. Whereas there are known techniquesd we've published many papers about them, where you can have an average cost of half o'
