Primes¶
- Latency
- Wherever there is latency, what arrives now reflects what happened earlier, so the present output is always a delayed image of a past input.
This sourceEstablishes latency as a distinct quantity from bandwidth/throughput that improves far more slowly across technologies, and motivates the traversal-time-versus-capacity distinction and the use of buffering/prefetching to hide irreducible delay.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
