Relative Time Severity Calculator
Compare actual time to optimal time using logarithmic scale
Relative Time Severity Calculator
Calculate the Relative Time Severity to compare actual time to optimal:
ext{TSS} = log_{10}left( rac{ ext{TV}(S)}{ ext{TV}^*(S)}
ight)
Relative Time Severity: —
Baseline (≤2×) Moderate (≈5×) Major (≈10×) Severe (≈25×) Crisis (≥100×)
Understanding TSS
Relative Time Severity (TSS) quantifies waste as an order of magnitude by comparing what is to what should be.
Each full point on the log scale represents an order of magnitude in wasted life:
| Tier | Approx. Overhead | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Baseline | ≤ 2× | Tolerable variance |
| Moderate | ≈ 5× | Needs redesign |
| Major | ≈ 10× | Systemic failure begins |
| Severe | ≈ 25× | Chronic exploitation |
| Crisis | ≥ 100× | Mass Time Violence |
