Limits to clock synchronization induced by completely dephasing communication channels
There are two main kinds of protocols for achieving clock synchronization. The first is the ‘‘Einstein synchronization protocol’’ @1# in which a signal is sent back and forth between one of the clocks ~say Alice’s clock! and the other clocks. By knowing the signal speed dependence on the intermediate environment, it is possible to synchronize all the clocks with Alice’s. The other main protocol...
متن کاملFundamental Limits on Network Clock Synchronization by Nikolaos Markos
We present fundamental impossibility results on clock synchronization in wireline or wireless networks, and sharply characterize what is feasible. We consider a network of n nodes with affine clocks, with one node designated as a reference. Each other node’s clock is described by a skew (relative speedup with respect to the reference clock), and an offset at time 0 (say) with respect to the ref...

متن کاملSynchronization Expressed in Types of Communication Channels
Static typing and subtyping are useful concepts in object-oriented programming languages. Unfortunately, current type models for concurrent object-oriented languages are not yet as expressive as they should be: Clients have to rely on synchronization behavior not expressed in the objects' types. In the type model proposed in this paper, types of communication channels make synchronization const...
متن کاملClock Synchronization
When Charles V retired in weariness from the greatest throne in the world to the solitude of the monastery at Yuste, he occupied his leisure for some weeks trying to regulate two clocks. It proved very difficult. One day, it is recorded, he turned to his assistant and said: “To think that I attempted to force the reason and conscience of thousands of men into one mould, and I cannot make two cl...
