Time synchronization is necessary in many distributed systems, but achieving synchronization in sensornets, which combine stringent precision requirements with severe resource con...

We present a local clocking mechanism based on a tunable delay line which calibrates itself from a low frequency global clock. After initial tuning, the local clock remains calibr...

Having access to an accurate time is a vital building block in all networks; in wireless sensor networks even more so, because wireless media access or data fusion may depend on i...

In this paper we present a new fault tolerant clock synchronization algorithm called the Fault Tolerant Daisy Chain algorithm. It is intended for internal clock synchronization of...
We consider the fundamental problem of waking up n processors sharing a multiple access channel. We assume the weakest model of synchronization, the locally synchronous model, in ...
