Sincronizam

Sincronizam is a term denoting the state or practice of events, processes, or actions occurring at the same time or in a coordinated manner. It is a variant of the concept commonly rendered in English as synchronism or synchronization and derives etymologically from Greek roots meaning "together" (syn-) and "time" (chronos).

The concept is applied across multiple disciplines. In technology and engineering, sincronizam refers to coordinating clocks, data streams, or processes so that systems operate reliably together—examples include clock synchronization in networks and audio–video alignment in media production. In biology and neuroscience, it describes the temporal alignment of physiological rhythms or neural activity, as when cells, neurons, or organisms exhibit synchronized oscillations. In music and performing arts, sincronizam denotes the coordinated timing among performers to achieve ensemble precision. In social sciences and behavioral studies, it can be used to describe coordinated actions or temporal alignment within groups, such as synchronized movements, conversations, or cultural rituals.

Related concepts include entrainment, synchrony, and phase locking, which emphasize mechanisms that produce or maintain temporal coordination. Practical concerns tied to sincronizam often involve latency, drift, and methods for correction or control, such as feedback systems, clocks, and protocols designed to preserve alignment across components or agents.
