New Method Developed For Synchronizing Clocks

Maintaining the correct time is no longer just a matter of keeping your watch wound -- especially when it comes to computers, telecommunications, and other complex systems. The clocks in these devices must stay accurate to within nanoseconds because their oscillators -- objects, like quartz crystals, which repeat the same motion over and over again -- are synchronized to agree with the clocks on ...

GPS and Internet Aid in Setting Clocks Accurately to Within Nanoseconds

A new way to synchronize clocks in devices that require accuracy.

New method developed for synchronizing clocks

Researchers report on a new way to accurately synchronize clocks. The new method uses both GPS and the Internet to set clocks within 10 nanoseconds of a reference clock located anywhere on Earth.
