36 * time or absolute timestamp referred to some local network uptime reference
42 * time within the network subsystem.
45 * local or remote interfaces to share a common notion of elapsed time within
46 * well-defined tolerances. Network uptime therefore differs from time
51 * locked) with respect to a common local or remote network reference time
55 * This also explains why network time, if represented as a cycle value of some
67 * time according to a more complex timescale (e.g. including leap seconds, time
68 * adjustments, complex calendars or time zones). In these cases you may use
70 * time as in @ref tm (C90). The advantage of net_time_t over these structured
71 * time representations is lower memory footprint, faster and simpler scalar
74 * while POSIX concepts cannot. Converting net_time_t from/to structured time
80 * If you want to represent more coarse grained scalar time in network
87 * If you need even finer grained time resolution, you may want to look at
93 * the wrong resolution or to represent underspecified concepts of time with
105 /** The largest positive time value that can be represented by net_time_t */
