Synchronization between media is an important aspect in the design of multimedia communication-system. This paper proposes a precise media synchronization mechanism for video and audio transport over IP networks. To support synchronization between video and audio bitstreams transported over IP networks, RTP/RTCP protocol suite is usually employed. To provide a precise mechanism for media synchronization between video and audio, we suggest an efficient media synchronization algorithm based on NPT (Normal Play Time) which can be derivable from the timestamp information in the header part of RTP packet generated for the transport of video and audio. In the proposed method, we do not need to send and process any RTCP SR (sender report) packet which is required for conventional media synchronization scheme, and accordingly could reduce the number of required UDP ports and the amount of control traffic injected into the network.

Recently, as the configuration of computer systems are changed to the system equipped with several processors, operating system to support these systems has been needed. The purpose of this paper is to implement concurrent execution of processes as synchronization mechanism by using concurrent programming language, pascal-s. In this paper, concurrnecy of processes is represented

In most application programs, loops usually contain most of the computation in a program and are the most improtant source of parallelism. When loops are executed on multiprocessors, the cross iteration data dependences need to be enforced by synchronization between processors. In this paper, we propose a new synchronization scheme(Free/Hold) for reducing overgeads occured by synchronization variables in data oriented scheme and delay of time occured by synchronization instruction in statement oriented scheme. The Free/Hold mechanism enforces the correct execution order by inserting synchronization instruction between each instance with data dependence relationship using the RD(Real dependence Distance). We also present an algorithm for removing unnecessary dependences in one-to-many dependences.

Round robin based proportional share scheduling(RRPS) defines weight which determines share for each task and allocates CPU resource to each task in proportional to its respective weight. RRPS uses fairness as the measure of performance and aims at high fairness of scheduling. However, researches for scheduling fairness problem due to synchronization among tasks have been rarely investigated. In this paper, we discuss that scheduling delay due to synchronization may result high unfairness in RRPS. We explain such a situation as weight inversion. We then propose weight inheritance protocol(WIP), a synchronization mechanism, that prevents weight inversion. We also show that WIP can reduce unfairness using fairness analysis and simulation.

A general web-based remote lecture system uses video data and audio data to provide synchronize between teacher and students. This system requires high bandwidth, high speed networking, television, compression and computing technologies between server and client for remote lecture over Internet. As a result, this system can decrease an efficiency for lecturing over current Internet. So, this paper proposes a new mechanism calling as ‘Synchronization of WWW browsers between server and client’to cope with above problems and finally pursues low cost needed for real-time remote lecture over Internet. The mechanism means that every browser of teacher and students displays the same page and the action of teacher is transferred to the browser of student. And, this can be implemented by Windows hooking APIs, Memory Mapping, and DLL (Dynamic Link Library) programming technology. This paper points to the design and implementation of LAS (Lecture Assistant Server) and LAC (Lecture Assistant Client) to perform the synchronization between server and client.

This paper aims to support delay-sensitive multimedia applications by suggesting a mechanism in which maintains almost constant end-to-end delay thus providing the optimum playout synchronization. For this task the sum of network delay and buffering delay is entiredly managed and to eliminate little delay fluctuations and instantaneous delays at a buffer and a network, a low pass filter is used. Furthermore the correction function, which is used for maintaining the buffering level ot a reference value, is a non-linear step function, unlike the existing linear and continuous function. it has a different step sizes adapting to a traffic characteristics of a network congestion. the proposed mechanism has been confirmed of it sefficiency through SLAM-II netowrk.

Reference Broadcast Synchronization (RBS) is one of the most prominent synchronization protocols in wireless sensor nework. Given that the broadcasting medium is available, RBS can give very high accuracy of synchronization. However, RBS uses instantaneous synchronization and results in time discontinuity, which might cause serious faults in the distributed system. Also, RBS lacks packet loss tolerance, which brings about degraded performance in severe conditions of wireless channel. In this paper, the problem of time discontinuity in RBS is pointed out and the effect of packet loss on the performance of RBS is examined. Then, a continuous synchronization and a packet loss tolerance mechanism for RBS are proposed, and the result is verified through simulations.

In this paper, We proposed an development method of application framework for using the precision time protocol(PTP) based on physical layer devices to synchronize clocks across a network with IEEE1588 capable devices. The algorithm was not designed as a complete solution across all conditions, but is intended to show the feasibility of such a for the PTP(Precision Time Protocol) based on time synchronization of heterogeneous network between devices that support in IEEE 1588 Standard application framework. With synchronization messages per second, the system was able to accurately synchronize across a single heavily loaded switch. we describes a method of synchronization that provides much more accurate synchronization in systems with larger networks. In this paper, using the IEEE 1588 PTP support for object-oriented modeling techniques through the 'application framework development Development(AFDM)' is proposed. The method described attempts to detect minimum delays, or precision packet probe and packet metrics. The method also takes advantage of the Tablet PC(Primary to Secondary) clock control mechanism to separately control clock rate and time corrections, minimizing overshoot or wild swings in the accuracy of the clock. We verifying the performance of PTP Systems through experiments that proposed method.

In the present work, a synchronization test system for variable nozzle is described. Variable nozzles are used to enhance the effectiveness of aircraft engines at various altitudes. The synchronization test system was developed to verify the dynamic characteristics and synchronization of variable nozzle mechanism including flaps. The system with a variable nozzle was analyzed, before its fabrication, by a multi-body dynamics analysis software RecurDyn. The newly developed test system is being used to show the synchronization capability of a variable nozzle system.

MPAs(Massively Parallel Architectures) should address two fundamental issues for scalability: synchronization and communication latency. Dataflow architecture faces problems of excessive synchronization overhead and inefficient execution of sequential programs while they offer the ability to exploit massive parallelism inherent in programs. In contrast, MPAs based on von Neumann computational model may suffer from inefficient synchronization mechanism and communication latency. DAVRID (DAtaflow/Von Neumann RISC hybrID) is a massively parallel multithreaded architecture which takes advantages of von Neumann and dataflow models. It has good single thread performance as well as tolerates synchronization and communication latency. In this paper, we describe the DAVRID architecture in detail and evaluate its performance through simulation runs over several benchmarks.
