+// A ISO8601 timestamp generation service for M2X.
+// It uses the Time API provided by the M2X server to initialize
+// clock, then uses millis() function provided by Arduino to calculate
+// time advancements so as to reduce API query times.
+//
+// Right now, this service only works with 32-bit timestamp, meaning that
+// this service won't work after 03:14:07 UTC on 19 January 2038. However,
+// a similar service that uses 64-bit timestamp can be implemented following
+// the logic here.
