A novel, high resolution oscillator model for DES systems

High accurate synchronization of clocks in environments with a high number of nodes can take advantage of modern communication networks. However, with the large number of nodes another problem arises: systems of this size cannot any more be evaluated on experimental basis. Therefore, simulation tools and models are required. These simulator models have special requirements which are outlined in this paper. Moreover, a modeling strategy is proposed and demonstrated, which can be implemented for Discrete Event Simulation tools.
