Detecting global predicates in distributed systems with clocks
2000
Distributed computing
This paper proposes a framework for detecting global state predicates in systems of processes with approximately-synchronized real-time clocks. ...
Complexity analysis shows that under reasonable assumptions, these real-time-clock-based detection algorithms are less expensive than detection algorithms based on Lamport's happened-before ordering. ...
In most local-area distributed systems, protocols like NTP can e ciently maintain synchronization of clocks to within a few milliseconds 26 . ...

A taxonomy of distributed termination detection algorithms
1998
Journal of Systems and Software
An important problem in the ®eld of distributed systems is that of detecting the termination of a distributed computation. ...
Distributed termination detection (DTD) is a dicult problem due to the fact that there is no simple way of gaining knowledge of the global state of the system. ...

Design Techniques for Streamlined Integration and Fault Tolerance in a Distributed Sensor System for Line-crossing Recognition
2007
2007 16th International Conference on Computer Communications and Networks
This provides a general method for achieving such synchronization with reduced hardware requirements and reduced energy consumption compared to conventional approaches, which rely on generic interface ...
Such applications involve resource-limited embedded sensor nodes that communicate with each other through self-organizing protocols. ...
Moreover, every time a node receives a valid packet from its neighbor, it carries out the clock synchronization scheme with its neighbor so that clock drift is prevented. ...

Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Many distributed tasks (e.g. clock synchronization) possess ecient non-stabilizing solutions tolerating Byzantine faults or conversely non-Byzantine but self-stabilizing solutions. ...
The synchronized pulses are used as events for initializing Byzantine agreement on every node's local state. The set of local states is used for global predicate detection. ...

Design of a SPDIF receiver using protocol compiler
1998
Proceedings of the 35th annual conference on Design automation conference - DAC '98
The design was done with Protocol Compiler, a high-level synthesis tool for the design of structured data stream processing controllers. ...
The data bit rate is roughly 2.8 MHz allowing transmissions of audio samples with frequencies up to 44 KHz. The clock speed of the code bits is consequently about 5.6 MHz. ...
Since the receiver runs on a higher clock speed than the SPDIF source and both clocks are not synchronized, one has to allow for variances in the pattern at the receiver side. ...

We use distributed varactors to dynamically vary the latency of LC interconnects and thus effect surfing. ...
