Abstract
A circadian-based watchbill is the term used for a work and
rest schedule that conforms to a 24-hour day, allowing individuals
to work, eat, and sleep at approximately the same
time each day. When you combine the number of hours
spent on watch with the number of hours off watch (whether
doing other work, eating or sleeping), a circadian-based
system will add up to 24 hours. The system aligns with the
naturally-occurring 24-hour rhythm which drives all biological
processes, down to the cellular level.
