Clock synchronization is a crucial basic service in typical sensor networks, since the observations of distributed sensors more often than not need to be ordered ("a happened...
We address the problem of the impossibility of implementing synchronous fault-tolerant service specifications in asynchronous distributed systems. We introduce a method for weaken...
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...
Time synchronization is an essential service in distributed computing and control systems. It is used to enable tasks such as synchronized data sampling and accurate time-offlight...

Abstract--As a replacement for the fast-fading GloballySynchronous model, we have defined a flexible design style called GRLS, for Globally-Ratiochronous, Locally-Synchronous, whic...
