Book Clock synchronization in distributed systems     a comparison

Download or read book Clock synchronization in distributed systems a comparison written by Harald Bachner and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2007-03-01 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2007 in the subject Computer Science - Technical Computer Science, grade: 1,0, University of Applied Sciences Technikum Vienna (Informations- und Kommunikationssysteme), language: English, abstract: Clock synchronization is a necessary and critical part in most distributed systems. For many years NTP was the state-of-the-art way of synchronizing computer clocks distributed in space. However, as recent advances in miniaturization lead to the construction of smaller, more powerful and less power consuming computers, embedded devices, sensors and actuators, the need for more precise time synchronization grew. This work thus sets out to compare selected approaches to clock synchronization in distributed systems. The well known Global Positioning System is disseminating accurate time and frequency information from the International Institutes that keep the time, NTP can still do the same, but at different levels of accuracy as well as cost. Clock synchronization protocols like IEEE1588 or TTP and bus architectures like FlexRay evolved from the need to further propagate the timing information within small networks and therefore staying within the specified limits of preciseness.

Book Clock Synchronization in Distributed Systems

Download or read book Clock Synchronization in Distributed Systems written by Martin Horauer and published by Sudwestdeutscher Verlag Fur. This book was released on 2009 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A system-wide global time base with known precision is frequently of pivotal importance for the design and operation of distributed systems and services. The requirements and the large scale often demand a high-precision below the microsecond-range. The IEEE-1588 standard addresses these issues and proposes ways for a suitable implementation. Complementing these solutions, an alternative architecture for network interfaces and networked devices is proposed that renders a worst-case precision in the 100 ns-range possible. Furthermore, an analysis and an experimental evaluation reveals actual values for the worst-case precision that might be achieved.

Book Time Synchronization in Distributed Systems Without a Central Clock

Download or read book Time Synchronization in Distributed Systems Without a Central Clock written by Takin Tadayon and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Time synchronization and a common understanding of the concept of time is an essential and important aspect of modern computing. Among the drawbacks of current and popular methods, such as the Network Time Protocol, (NTP), or the Precision Time Protocol, (PTP), are the need for live synchronization, and the use of a central reference clock. While these methods are ideal in an environment with constant, uninterruptible, and reliable internet connection, they may prove impracticable in a number of scenarios including Internet of Things (IoT) devices. In cases where there is no access to a central clock, or where the accuracy of two clocks is paramount yet there exists no reliable network access, new methods for synchronization are needed. Our proposed method utilizes existing hardware, without the need for onerous algorithms, in order to establish time-accuracy between two devices. The method effectively establishes a master-slave relationship between two computers, and endeavors to find the difference in time between the two devices, over a period of time. This reduces the reliance on constant, and on-going connection to a central clock. Further, in cases where methods such as NTP, or PTP may be preferred, our proposed solution can bolster those protocols.

Book Distributed Real Time Systems

Download or read book Distributed Real Time Systems written by K. Erciyes and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-07-23 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This classroom-tested textbook describes the design and implementation of software for distributed real-time systems, using a bottom-up approach. The text addresses common challenges faced in software projects involving real-time systems, and presents a novel method for simply and effectively performing all of the software engineering steps. Each chapter opens with a discussion of the core concepts, together with a review of the relevant methods and available software. This is then followed with a description of the implementation of the concepts in a sample kernel, complete with executable code. Topics and features: introduces the fundamentals of real-time systems, including real-time architecture and distributed real-time systems; presents a focus on the real-time operating system, covering the concepts of task, memory, and input/output management; provides a detailed step-by-step construction of a real-time operating system kernel, which is then used to test various higher level implementations; describes periodic and aperiodic scheduling, resource management, and distributed scheduling; reviews the process of application design from high-level design methods to low-level details of design and implementation; surveys real-time programming languages and fault tolerance techniques; includes end-of-chapter review questions, extensive C code, numerous examples, and a case study implementing the methods in real-world applications; supplies additional material at an associated website. Requiring only a basic background in computer architecture and operating systems, this practically-oriented work is an invaluable study aid for senior undergraduate and graduate-level students of electrical and computer engineering, and computer science. The text will also serve as a useful general reference for researchers interested in real-time systems.
