In a network containing multiple nodes, the need for synchronization between the various nodes is not just instrumental but also a complicated and highly complex process. This process becomes even ...

The project illustrates how reliable time is provided by several time servers using Network time Protocol (NTP) based on AVR. The project illustrates how reliable time is provided by several time ...

You’d think that synchronizing the clocks across a fleet of modern servers is a solved problem, but it’s actually quite a hard challenge to solve, especially if you want to get to nanosecond accuracy.

NTP is one of the most interesting and important, but all too forgotten, protocols that makes the internet tick. Accurate clock synchronization is required for everything ranging from cryptography to ...

One of the challenges facing those developing networks featuring wirelessly connected devices is maintaining a common clock time. A popular way of doing this is by using Network Time Protocol (NTP), a ...

TELECOMMUNICATIONS NETWORKS ARE RAPIDLY MIGRATING from circuit switched to packet technologies to converge services onto a single network, deliver larger amounts of bandwidth, and lower costs. One of ...

Serious weaknesses in the Internet’s time-synchronization mechanism can be exploited to cause debilitating outages, snoop on encrypted communications, or tamper with Bitcoin transactions, computer ...

Miscreants who earlier this week took down servers for League of Legends, EA.com, and other online game services used a never-before-seen technique that vastly amplified the amount of junk traffic ...
