To delay a minimum of a fixed amount of time

delay <Duration-expression>;

e.g. delay 0.5; -- delay half a second

To delay at least until some appointed time

delay until <Ada.Calendar.Time-expression>

e.g.:

Next_Time : Ada.Calendar.Time;
use type Ada.Calendar.Time;
.
.
.
-- Make sure the following loop executes once per second
Next_Time := Ada.Calendar.Clock;
loop
    .
    .
   Next_Time := Next_Time + 1.0;
   delay until  Next_Time;
end loop;
