摘要
In this paper, we propose a self-stabilizing binary phase clock protocol for unidirectional rings with odd size. The proposed protocol requires only four states for each processor and the worst-case stabilizing time is O(n(2)). This improves the previous result of 56 states and the worst-case stabilizing time of O(n(3)). (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.
