Abstract :
This paper examines the network timing and synchronization requirements for various network topologies. Both centralized and decentralized topologies are considered. Although the prime emphasis is on circuit switching networks, other networks involving message switches, packet switches, and integrated voice/data nodal configurations are also considered.
