gaper's delay
The traffic delay resulting from a roadside accident or similar spectacle. Derived from drivers' gaping behavior when driving near an accident. Heard on the air in Chicago.
We've got a gaper's delay on the Eisenhower - a 40-foot tall puppuet is gesticulating madly at the drivers. That'll add half an hour to your drive today.

Delay is an audio signal processing technique that records an input signal to a storage medium and then plays it back after a period of time. When the delayed playback is mixed with the live audio, it creates an echo-like effect, whereby the original audio is heard followed by the delayed audio.
Shapiro time delay
TIME DELAY CAUSED BY SPACE-TIME DISTORTION NEAR MASSIVE OBJECTS
Shapiro effect; Time delay of light; Gravitational time delay; Shapiro delay
The Shapiro time delay effect, or gravitational time delay effect, is one of the four classic solar-system tests of general relativity. Radar signals passing near a massive object take slightly longer to travel to a target and longer to return than they would if the mass of the object were not present.

Delay line
Delay line may refer to:
- Propagation delay, the length of time taken for something to reach its destination
- Analog delay line, used to delay a signal
- Bi-directional delay line, a numerical analysis technique used in computer simulation for solving ordinary differential equations by converting them to hyperbolic equations
- Digital delay line, a sequential logic element
- Delay-line memory, a form of computer memory used on some of the earliest digital computers
