Abstract
Systems and methods for converting a format of a time stamp are disclosed. Embodiments may include retrieving, by the processor, from a memory, a single-word time stamp. Embodiments may further include identifying, by the processor, a first format of the retrieved single-word time stamp by processing at least one bit of the single-word time stamp. Embodiments may also include converting, by the processor, the format of the retrieved single-word time stamp from the first format to a second format.
Claims15
A method for converting a format of a time stamp, comprising:
- retrieving, by the processor, from a memory, a single-word time stamp;
- identifying, by the processor, a first format of the retrieved single-word time stamp by processing at least one bit of the single-word time stamp;
- and
- converting, by the processor, the format of the retrieved single-word time stamp from the first format to a second format using a multi-word configuration key associated with the single-word time stamp.
A computer program product, comprising:
- a non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions that, when executed by a processor of a computing system, cause the processor to perform the steps of:
- retrieving, from a memory, a single-word time stamp;
- identifying a first format of the retrieved single-word time stamp by processing at least one bit of the single-word time stamp;
- and
- converting the format of the retrieved single-word time stamp from the first format to a second format using a multi-word configuration key associated with the single-word time stamp.
An apparatus, comprising:
- a memory;
- a processor coupled to the memory, wherein the processor is further configured to perform the steps of:
- retrieving, from a memory, a single-word time stamp;
- identifying a first format of the retrieved single-word time stamp by processing at least one bit of the single-word time stamp;
- and
- converting the format of the retrieved single-word time stamp from the first format to a second format using a multi-word configuration key associated with the single-word time stamp.
