Abstract
The interest on firefly approaches to the problem of synchronizing the nodes of a wireless ad hoc communication network is rising, because of its efficiency and efficacy. In this paper we show that it is enough to have an indirect interaction among nodes, either spatially (through multi-hop paths), or temporally (through mobility) to achieve synchronism among them. As the interactions among nodes increases, global synchronization emerges faster.
