Time synchronization is one of the fundamental build- ing blocks for coordinated and power-efficient operation of the networked robots. Ironically, time synchroniza- tion itself is also an energy consuming process which de- mands communication and …
A desirable flooding-based time synchronization pro- tocol inWireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) should neither demand fast propagation of up-to-date time information nor keeping track of the neighboring nodes. Moreover, such a protocol is strictly re- …
Synchronization of tiny sensor nodes forming Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) is a challenging problem due to frequent topological changes, node failures and power, memory and computation constraints. These difficulties promote a self-organizing …
