Retiming has found industrial use, albeit sporadic.

Traffic shaping is the retiming (delaying) of packets (or frames) until they meet specified bandwidth and or burstiness limits.

Although there were some inevitable diversions and retiming of trains, disruption of services was kept to a minimum and the project was completed on schedule.

Optimizing Sequential Cycles Through Shannon Decomposition and Retiming (PDF) Paper on application.

The established method, practiced worldwide since the 1980s is intended to reduce or eliminate perceptual processing errors; the resultant retiming of visual signals in the brain improves the reading difficulties associated with scotopic sensitivity syndrome.
