Abstract: INTRODUCTION Sensor networks are used to monitor real-world phenomena. For such monitoring applications, physical time often plays a crucial role. We will discuss these applications of time in Section 1.1.1. Providing synchronized physical time is a complex task due to various challenging characteristics of sensor networks. In Section 1.1.2, we present these challenges and discuss why synchronization algorithms for traditional distributed systems often do not meet these challenges. ii (a)... (Update)
