Wireless ad-hoc sensor networks have emerged as an interesting and important research area in the last few years. The applications envisioned for such networks require collaborati...
Every computer needs a timer mechanism to keep track of current time and also for various accounting purposes such as calculating the time spent by a process in CPU utilization, di...
Abstract--Time synchronization is a critical service for distributed network systems. In this work, we investigate this problem in the context of underwater sensor networks (UWSNs)...

Time synchronization is a crucial component of a large class of sensor network applications, traditionally implemented as a standalone middleware service that provides a virtual gl...
We propose an improved probabilistic method for reading remote clocks in systems subject to unbounded communication delays and use this method to design a family of fault-tolerant...
