Time scales have been constructed in different ways to meet the many demands placed upon them for time accuracy, frequency accuracy, Long-term stability and robustness. Usually, no single time scale is optimum for all purposes. In the context of the impending availability of high-accuracy intermittently-operated cesium fountains, we reconsider the question of evaluating the accuracy of time scales which use an algorithm to span interruptions of the primary standard. We ...
