Latency

Definition:

describes a delay in sending data over a network. When a presenter clicks a slide to advance in a web conference, it may take slightly different amounts of time to appear on viewer's computers. This is because small delays, or latency, occur as the "change slide" command is communicated across the Internet. Latency can also cause audio or video signals to be slightly delayed in reaching individual's computers as well.
