Nanos is the plural of nano, an informal shortening of nanosecond—one billionth of a second.
In technical contexts, especially computing and electronics, operations happen in nanos: The processor executes instructions in nanos.
The prefix nano- appears in nanotechnology, nanometer, and similar terms dealing with the extremely small.
