We expose the state of the art in the topic of one-way delay measurement in both traditional
and software-defined networks. A representative range of standard mechanisms and recent …

Information and operational technologies merge into the so-called industrial Internet of
Things, which is one of the basic pillars of the Industry 4.0 paradigm. Roughly speaking, yet …

We expose the state of the art in the topic of network time synchronization. Many distributed
applications require a common notion of time to function properly. Without time …

This paper addresses issues with time synchronization using the IEEE 1588-2008 for
distributed measurement and control systems. A practical implementation of the transparent …

Computer-aided surgery systems provide visual guidance to surgeons by showing the real-
time pose of surgical instruments overlaid on preoperative medical images of the patient …

The IEC 61850 standard allows for a structured grid automation system where critical tasks
like grid protections, renewable energy sources management, synchronized measurements …

Data-driven agriculture and Internet of Farming (IoF) require reliable communication
systems. Nowadays, only some of the key use cases demanded by the agricultural industry …

A method for indicating one-way latency in a data network, with continuous clock
synchronization, between first and second node having clocks that are not synchronized …

In inverter-based microgrids, individual inverters operate usually with their own digital
processor. The clocks used to generate the time signals of these processors differ from each …

The Internet of Things (IoT) emerges as a myriad of devices and services that interact to
build complex distributed applications. Interoperability and standardization are imperative …
