subtype: seek_time (computer science) the time it takes for a read/write head to move to a specific data track
subtype: track-to-track_seek_time (computer science) the time it takes for a read/write head to move to an adjacent data track
subtype: time_constant.time_interval__timeconstant (electronics) the time required for the current or voltage in a circuit to rise or fall exponentially through approximately 63 per cent of its amplitude
subtype: relaxation_time__relaxationtime the time constant of an exponential return of a system to equilibrium after a disturbance
subtype: time_slot__slot a time assigned on a schedule or agenda; "the TV program has a new time slot"; "an aircraft landing slot"
subtype: lunitidal_interval__lunitidalinterval interval between the moon's transit of a particular meridian and the next high tide at that meridian
subtype: absence.time_interval the time interval during which something or somebody is away; "he visited during my absence"
subtype: pause.time_interval__intermission__break__interruption__suspension a time interval during which there is a temporary cessation of something
subtype: lapse a break or intermission in the occurrence of something; "a lapse of three weeks between letters"
subtype: blackout a suspension of radio or tv broadcasting
subtype: caesura.pause a pause or interruption (as in a conversation); "after an ominous caesura the preacher continued"
subtype: delay__hold__time_lag__postponement__wait time during which some action is awaited; "instant replay caused too long a delay"; "he ordered a hold in the action"
subtype: extension.delay a mutually agreed delay in the date set for the completion of a job or payment of a debt; "they applied for an extension of the loan"
subtype: moratorium.delay a legally authorized postponement before some obligation must be discharged
subtype: halftime an intermission between the first and second half of a game
subtype: rest_period__respite__rest__relief a pause for relaxation; "people actually accomplish more when they take time for short rests"
subtype: breather__breath__breathing_place__breathingplace__breathing_space__breathingspace__breathing_spell__breathingspell__breathing_time__breathingtime a short respite
subtype: time-out a brief suspension of play; "each team has two time-outs left"
subtype: letup__lull a pause during which things are calm or activities are diminished; "there was never a letup in the noise"
subtype: interlude an intervening period or episode
subtype: entr'acte the interlude between two acts of a play
subtype: interim__lag the time between one event, process, or period and another
subtype: interregnum the time between two reigns, governments, etc.
subtype: latent_period the time that elapses before the presence of a disease is manifested by symptoms
subtype: reaction_time__response_time__latency__latentperiod the time that elapses between a stimulus and the response to it
subtype: eternity a seemingly endless time interval (waiting)
subtype: rhythm__cycle__round an interval during which a recurring sequence of events occurs; "the neverending cycle of the seasons"
subtype: period the interval taken to complete one cycle of a regularly repeating phenomenon
subtype: orbit_period__orbitperiod the time it takes to complete one full orbit around a celestial body; "the orbit period depends on the altitude of the satellite"
subtype: float.time_interval the time interval between the deposit of a check in a bank and its payment
subtype: rotational_latency__latency (computer science) the time it takes for a specific block of data on a data track to rotate around to the read/write head
subtype: processing_time the time it takes to complete a prescribed procedure; "they increased output by decreasing processing time"
subtype: command_processing_overhead_time__command_processing_overhead__command_overhead__commandoverhead (computer science) the processing time required by a device prior to the execution of a command
