Abstract

Digital clock synchronization is critical for ensuring accurate timing across distributed systems, especially in high-performance computing and communication networks. Traditional synchronization methods often face challenges related to drift, jitter, and latency, which can lead to timing inaccuracies. This study introduces a novel Cyclic Rotation Algorithm (CRA) designed to enhance the precision of digital clock synchronization. The CRA method involves a systematic rotation of time stamps in a cyclic manner, effectively minimizing timing discrepancies and aligning clocks with greater accuracy.

The algorithm's performance was evaluated through extensive simulations and real-world testing across various network environments. Results demonstrate a significant improvement in synchronization accuracy, with the CRA consistently outperforming existing synchronization techniques in reducing clock drift and maintaining stability over extended periods.

Additionally, the CRA offers scalability and robustness, making it suitable for integration into diverse digital systems. This research contributes to the advancement of clock synchronization techniques, providing a reliable solution for applications where precision timing is paramount.
