Are, you're talking about signal timing! "Cycle length" is the total time for all signals to complete one full rotation. "Split" is how much green time each direction gets, and "offset" is the delay between when green starts at one junction and the next. Get all this right, and you get a "green wave"—cars flow smoothly, like a perfect frame around a busy street. I see it every day from my shop window: when the offsets are off, it's a jhal traffic jam, but when it's tuned, the whole road just... breathes. A good green wave is an art, like matching a frame to an old photo—it makes everything look right.
