Improvement of Physical Clock Synchronization Algorithm by Two-Level Synchronization

Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF COMPUTERS & TECHNOLOGY - Year 2013, Vol 11, Issue 6

Abstract

Synchronization of the clocks is one of the essential thing for many applications in distributed systems. Clock synchronization is very important because they improve the performance and reliability of distributed systems. The main purpose of clock synchronization algorithms is to provide the common time to essential parts of the distributed systems. In this paper the problem considered is synchronization of clock with bounded clock drift and proposing a two level synchronization algorithm which synchronizes the processors local clocks by combining both internal and external clock synchronization.
