All computers incorporate a software clock, essential to myriad software applications. An economic way to synchronize such clocks is over a network, however the approach the Internet currently depends upon is unreliable and vulnerable. This project aims to establish a new architecture for networked timekeeping, built on future-proofed fundamentals, that will for the first time address each of accuracy, reliability, and trust. The expected outcome is a national prototype, serving the public with accurate and trusted time, that will form the basis of the next generation timekeeping system for the Internet and the Internet of Things. Expected benefits include enhanced productivity across the digital economy, and resilience to GPS failures.

所有的计算机都包含一个软件时钟，这对无数的软件应用程序是必不可少的。一种经济的同步时钟的方法是通过网络，然而，互联网目前所依赖的方法是不可靠和脆弱的。该项目旨在建立一个面向未来的网络计时新架构，这将首次解决准确性、可靠性和信任度的问题。其预期成果是一个全国性的原型，为公众提供准确可靠的时间，这将构成下一代互联网和物联网计时系统的基础。预期的好处包括提高整个数字经济的生产力，以及对GPS故障的恢复能力。
