Abstract
The importance of high-speed networking is ever increasing to better support multimedia application such as video conferencing. It is crucial to synchronize the network so that the delay between computers on the network is minimized. In high-speed LAN, for example, most computers use clocks with almost same frequency to minimize the delay for data transmission. However, because of the deviation of transmitter's and receiver's clock frequency and phase difference there can be a metastability problem. Elasticity buffer is to provide a solution for this situation and this paper presents an implementation is a high-speed elasticity buffer.
