Rate Based Synchronous Diffusion Algorithm

Abstract

Sensor networks applications often require global time synchronization between numerous sensors. In this paper we implemented the Rate-Based Synchronous Diffusion Algorithm as described in [RE1] on TelosB mote with Contiki. We report the development procedure and the results obtained on the TARWIS testbed from the University of Bern 1, Switzerland.
