Survey on Time Synchronization Technology in Networks

With the rapid development of network communication diversification, time synchronization mechanism play an increasingly important role in the network application. However, because of the complexity of the network environment, cause in practice it is difficult to meet different application on time synchronization mechanism needs. So, this article selects the Internet infinite sensor network and P2P network three different types of typical network as the research object, based on their current time synchronization protocols and algorithms are analyzed and studied, to discuss the specific network: system based on the existing algorithm time synchronization mechanism for future new network or special network implementation time synchronization technology to provide guidance and reference.
