Thus, the existing schedule that we follow, finally finds the sun, moon, stars and planets. Now we have a solar calendar of 365 days and a leap year occurs every four years.

Development of science influence multitasking. Thus, life has run faster and the need to organize daily tasks has been felt widely. The human mind could not stop thinking, how to rely on the adoption times.

A careful observation on the apparent movement of the sun by the Egyptians, and the consequent changes in the positions of the shadows are important. Moving shadow of the obelisk monuments served sundials in 3500 BC At first, the days were divided into morning and afternoon. Later, additional pointers the Obelisk has helped in the distribution of day in hours.

quartz watches replaced the timekeepers spring substantially. Electronics pulsed oscillators in clocks are made of high crystal quartz. These new models display the time in numbers, hours, minutes and seconds. The factor of piezoelectric quartz facilitates the operation of these clocks. They are excellent in accuracy and range of prices is economic.

The atomic technology thrown its influence on innovations clock. Style of life were based on the precision time. Being one of communication, travel, transportation, operations and daily tasks, the time is calculated become a requirement for all professions.
