Abstract :
Time synchronization of different terminals play an important role in computer supported cooperative work environment. In order to enhance the time synchronization quality of the CSCW, a time synchronization algorithm of CSCW system based on server time-revise and workstation self-adjust was presented. The time-revise cycle and self-correct process was introduced in the paper. The algorithm reduces the flux of network effectively and enhances the quality of clock-synchronization.
