Goal of the session: identifying research issues

Application areas

  • Smart grids

The goal is to balance the load across the network. A phase-locked system is sufficient (not necessarily in-phase).

  • Wireless systems

Synchronization within 1% of the slot duration is sufficient.

Main issues

  • Robustness to faulty nodes

Does the system return in place after a node fails/does not follow local rules?

  • Fault tolerance
  • Scalability

Hierarchical synchronization, i.e. clustering, can be applied on top of SO Sync to limit scalability issues.

  • Implementation
  • Synchronization as a primal form of coordination

Open issues

  • Better understanding of inhibitory behavior in meshed networks
  • Dynamic networks
  • MEMFIS
    • Mathematical proof
    • Time to synchrony increases with the network diameter
  • Discrete Kuramoto model
