| activation clock | horloge d'activation (A type of countdown timer that is initially set to 30 days during which you must activate an installation of Windows. If you do not activate Windows within the 30 day period and do not reset the activation clock, Windows will enter Reduced Functionality Mode) |
| clock speed | fréquence d'horloge (A measure of processing power, given in megahertz (MHz)) |
| clock speed | vitesse d'horloge (A measure of processing power, given in megahertz (MHz)) |
| clock tick | battement d'horloge (The time required for the CPU to perform the simplest instruction, such as fetching the contents of a register or performing a no-operation instruction (NOP)) |
| clock vector | vecteur horloge (A collection of clock vector elements that represents updates to a replica. Any change that occurs between 0 and the tick count is contained in the vector) |
| clock vector element | élément de vecteur horloge (A pair of values, consisting of a replica key and a tick count, that represents a change to a replica) |
| real-time clock | horloge en temps réel (In PCs, circuits or other hardware elements that provide the system with real-world time) |
| system clock | horloge système (The electronic circuit in a computer that generates a steady stream of timing pulses--the digital signals that synchronize every operation. The system clock signal is precisely set by a quartz crystal, typically at a specific frequency between 1 and 50 megahertz. The clock rate of a computer is one of the prime determinants of its overall processing speed, and it can go as high as the other components of the computer allow) |
| World Clock | Horloge internationale (A gadget that shows current local time in your own time zone or any city in the world) |
