What is a resign on time in chess?

Resign on time is a tournament term: a player who intentionally runs out of time to avoid having to resign in a hopeless position can be said to have resigned on time. This is usually performed in a more subtle manner than that of Curt von Bardeleben walking out of the tournament hall against Wilhelm Steinitz. This affects how games are organized, scored, paired, or decided.
