摘要: We address the problem of how to integrate fault-tolerant external and internal clock synchronization. In this paper we propose a new external/internal synchronization algorithm which provides both for as long majority reference time servers (servers with access time) stay correct. When half or more are faulty, degrades algorithm. prove that at least 2 F+1 necessary achieving when up F can suffer arbitrary failures, thus proposed maximum fault-tolerance. also derive lower bounds best deviation achievable in standard mode drift rate degraded mode. Our is optimal respect these two bounds: (1) mode, (2) clocks
