Abstract

In an example embodiment disclosed herein, a first clock is allowed to synchronize with a second clock as long as the time difference between the first and second clocks is less than a predefined limit. If the time difference between the clocks is not less than the predefined limit, the first clock does not synchronize with the second clock until a predefined activity has occurred.
