| Abstract | Time ordering of events generated by entities existing within a distributed infrastructure is far more difficult than time ordering of events generated by a group of entities having access to the same underlying clock. Network Time Protocol (NTP) has been developed and provided to the public to let them adjust their local computer time from single (multiple) time source(s), which are usually atomic time servers provided by various organizations, like NIST and USNO. In this paper, we describe the implementation of a NTP based time service used within NaradaBrokering, which is an open source distributed middleware system. We will also provide test results obtained using this time service. |
