Precision Time Protocol - Related Initiatives

Related Initiatives

  • The International IEEE Symposium on Precision Clock Synchronization for Measurement, Control and Communication is an IEEE organized annual event that includes a plugfest and a conference program with paper and poster presentations, tutorials and discussions covering several aspects of PTP.
  • The Institute of Embedded Systems (InES) of the University of Winterthur is addressing the practical implementation and application of PTP.
  • IEEE 1588 is a key technology in the LXI Standard for Test and Measurement communication and control.
  • IEEE 802.1AS-2011 is part of the IEEE Audio Video Bridging (AVB) group of standards. It specifies a profile for use of IEEE 1588-2008 for time synchronization over a virtual bridged local area network (as defined by IEEE 802.1Q). In particular, 802.1AS defines how IEEE 802.3 (Ethernet), IEEE 802.11 (Wi-Fi), and coordinated shared networks like MoCA can all be parts of the same timing domain.
  • The Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers is developing a new broadcast synchronization standard based on IEEE 1588.

Famous quotes containing the words related and/or initiatives:

    In the middle years of childhood, it is more important to keep alive and glowing the interest in finding out and to support this interest with skills and techniques related to the process of finding out than to specify any particular piece of subject matter as inviolate.
    Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)

    It is well known, that the best productions of the best human intellects, are generally regarded by those intellects as mere immature freshman exercises, wholly worthless in themselves, except as initiatives for entering the great University of God after death.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
