| comp., MS | activation clock | 啟用時鐘 (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) |
| comp., MS | clock rate | 時脈速率 (The speed at which the internal clock in an electronic device oscillates. In computers, each tick (oscillation) of the clock is called a cycle, and the clock rate is measured in megahertz, or millions of cycles per second. The clock rate determines how quickly the CPU can execute basic instructions, such as adding two numbers, and it is used to synchronize the activities of various components in the system) |

| comp., MS | clock vector element | 時鐘向量元素 (A pair of values, consisting of a replica key and a tick count, that represents a change to a replica) |
| comp., MS | real-time clock | 系統時鐘 (In PCs, circuits or other hardware elements that provide the system with real-world time) |
| comp., MS | system clock | 系統時鐘 (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) |
| comp., MS | World Clock | 世界時鐘 (A gadget that shows current local time in your own time zone or any city in the world) |
