"""Lamport's logical clock.
From Wikipedia:
A Lamport logical clock is a monotonically incrementing software counter
maintained in each process. It follows some simple rules:
* A process increments its counter before each event in that process;
* When a process sends a message, it includes its counter value with
the message;
* On receiving a message, the receiver process sets its counter to be
greater than the maximum of its own value and the received value
before it considers the message received.
Conceptually, this logical clock can be thought of as a clock that only
has meaning in relation to messages moving between processes. When a
process receives a message, it resynchronizes its logical clock with
the sender.

* `Lamport timestamps`_
* `Lamports distributed mutex`_
.. _`Lamport Timestamps`: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamport_timestamps
.. _`Lamports distributed mutex`: http://bit.ly/p99ybE
*Usage*
When sending a message use :meth:`forward` to increment the clock,
when receiving a message use :meth:`adjust` to sync with
the time stamp of the incoming message.
