One gigasecond, or 1 000 000 000 seconds, is slightly more than thirty-one and a half years.

Giga ethernet is technologies for transmitting Ethernetframes at a rate of a gigabit per second,
I assume "gig" is short for "giga-bit per second" or gbps. mbps means "mega-bit per second". In this case, mega means million, while giga means billion, so giga is much more.
The prefix giga- usually refers to a multiplying factor of one billion; a gigahertz is one billion cycles per second.
Gigaflop is billion (giga) floating point operations per second.
Giga-tronics Incorporated (GIGA) had its IPO in 1983.
If you mean a giga second, yes it exists. however, in common terminology, it's best to go with hours, days, months and years
As of July 2014, the market cap for Giga-tronics Incorporated (GIGA) is $10,258,869.06.
there is one Giga Giga watt in one Exa watt. So one Exa watt = one Giga Giga watt or 109 Giga watt or one Exa watt = 1018 watt and one Giga watt = 109 watt then one Exa watt = 109 Giga watt or one Exa watt = one billion Giga watt = one thousand million Giga watt
In math, there are 9 zeros in giga. Giga is part of the SI prefixes. Giga symbol is G. If giga were money it would means you have one billion dollars.
It can range very widely. They can go from 5 mega bits per second to 50 giga bits per second. (with different types of cabling.) In Sept 2009, in their lab, Alcatel-Lucent achieved a speed of 2 Peta bits per second over 7,000KM. That's over 100 million Giga bits per second.
'giga...' = 109
In the SI (metric) system of units, the prefix "giga..." means "a billion of them".
