Basic principles behind distributed systems (collections of independent components that appear to users as a single coherent system) and main paradigms used to organize them. This course satisfies the ...

System timing and synchronization remains one of the least understood sciences in today's communications equipment design processes. As the essential foundation of all multiplexing, switching and ...

This article describes emerging trends in synchronizing digital ICs and shows how process scaling, rapid increases in clock frequencies, and demand for lower power dissipation will affect the choice ...

In the power generation industry, accurate time-keeping by supervisory control systems is of utmost importance. Operational failures can propagate rapidly across plant systems and trigger a chain ...
