ABSTRACT:
A time-keeping section is programmed in such a manner that a predetermined number of virtual particles are caused to reciprocatively move between two virtual space regions successively, and the time-keeping section can sequentially keep time with accuracy using, as a basic time unit, a time required for the predetermined number of virtual particles to make a single travel from one of the space regions to the other space region. With the time values yielded by the time-keeping section, it is allowed to accurately accumulate the basic time unit over a preset time period (e.g., time data for 1,000 years). By incorporating such a time measuring device in each selected computer, accurate common time can be set for shared use among computers connected in a network and also with a computer loaded in an artificial satellite operating far from the earth. In addition, communication among the computers and remote control of any of the computers can be performed very smoothly.
