I would like to know if there exists the best algorithm for timer

of objects, which arrive simultaneously.
You've got the wrong newsgroup. Timing is not possible in a purely
computational system, so it is always going to rely on hardware, and
thus generally on the operating system. If you need accurate timing as
you imply here, you should ask in a newsgroup appropriate to programming
for the operating system you are interested in. Some operating systems
will be better at this than others; those operating systems that
specialize in making stuff like this work are called "real-time".
