	Cronus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		As a result of his association with the bountiful and virtuous Golden Age, Cronus was worshiped as a harvest deity, overseeing crops such as corn and grains, and nature, agriculture, and the progression of time in relation to humans in general.
		While Cronus was considered a cruel and tempestuous deity to the Greeks, his nature under Roman influence became more innocuous, with his association with the Golden Age eventually causing him to become the god of "human time", i.e., calendars, seasons, and harvests—not to be confused with Chronos, the unrelated embodiment of time in general.
		While the Greeks largely neglected Cronus, considering him a mere intermediary stage between Uranus and Zeus, he was a larger aspect of Roman mythology and religion; Saturnalia was a festival dedicated in his honor, and at least one temple to Saturn existed in the early Roman Kingdom.

		Cronus Protocol Layering The VLN is completely compatible with the Internet Protocol as defined in [5], i.e., no changes or extensions to IP are 5 DOS-26 Rev A Virtual Local Network RFC 824 required to implement IP above the VLN.
		Between two VLN clients S and R in the same Cronus cluster, the sequence of datagrams received by R is a subsequence of the sequence sent by S to R; a stronger sequencing property holds for broadcast and multicast addressing.
