Milliseconds (ms)
The millisecond, symbol ms, is a metric submultiple of the second equal to one thousandth of a second. As an official SI derived unit of time, it is defined directly relative to the atomic standard of the second. Milliseconds are widely used in computing, telecommunications, physics experiments, and sports timing where measuring sub-second durations and latency with high precision is necessary for accurate operational analysis and synchronous data processing.
