A certification by a trusted third party specifying that a particular message existed at a specific time and date. In a digital context, trusted third parties generate a trusted timestamp for a particular message by having a timestamping service append a time value to a message and then digitally signing the result. See also digital signature, service
A timestamp is a time value expressed in milliseconds It is typically the time since the last server reset Timestamp values wrap around (after about 49 7 days) The server, given its current time is represented by timestamp T, always interprets timestamps from clients by treating half of the timestamp space as being earlier in time than T and half of the timestamp space as being later in time than T One timestamp value, represented by the constant CurrentTime, is never generated by the server This value is reserved for use in requests to represent the current server time
A value in the "seconds since the epoch" format used by Unix and POSIX systems Used for the @command{gawk} functions mktime, strftime, and systime See also "Epoch" and "UTC "
