The importance of pulse-coupled oscillators (PCOs) in biology and engineering has motivated research to understand basic properties of PCO networks. Despite the large body of work addressing PCOs, a global synchronization result for…
Populations of flashing fireflies, claps of applauding audience, cells of cardiac and circadian pacemakers reach synchrony via event-triggered interactions, referred to as pulse couplings. Synchronization via pulse coupling is widely used…
This work provides new insights on the convergence of a locally connected network of pulse coupled oscillator (PCOs) (i.e., a bio-inspired model for communication networks) to synchronous and desynchronous states, and their implication in…
By spreading phases on the unit circle, desynchronization algorithm is a powerful tool to achieve round-robin scheduling, which is crucial in applications as diverse as media access control of communication networks, realization of…

Clock synchronization is a widely discussed topic in the engineering literature. Ensuring that individual clocks are closely aligned is important in network systems, since the correct timing of various events in a network is usually…
In this paper, we consider the synchronization of heterogeneous pulse-coupled oscillators (PCOs), where some of the oscillators might be faulty or malicious. The oscillators interact through identical pulses at discrete instants and evolve…
The precision of synchronization algorithms based on the theory of pulse-coupled oscillators is evaluated on FPGA-based radios for the first time. Measurements show that such algorithms can reach precision in the low microsecond range when…
We assess the power consumption of network synchronisation protocols, particularly the energy required to synchronise all nodes across a network. We use the widely adopted approach of bio-inspired, pulse-coupled oscillators to achieve…
The proliferation of wireless communications networks over the past decades, combined with the scarcity of the wireless spectrum, have motivated a significant effort towards increasing the throughput of wireless networks. One of the major…
The primary contribution of this work is to examine the energy efficiency of pulse coupled oscillation for time synchronization in a realistic wireless network environment and to explore the impact of mobility on convergence rate. Energy…
Synchronized neural spiking is associated with many cognitive functions and thus, merits study for its own sake. The analysis of neural synchronization naturally leads to the study of repetitive spiking and consequently to the analysis of…
Understanding complex systems which exhibit desynchronization as an emergent property should have important implications, particularly in treating neurological disorders and designing efficient communication networks. Here were demonstrate…
We consider networks of weakly pulse-coupled identical oscillators. In an effort to resolve a long-standing problem, we develop an analytic condition on the infinitesimal phase response curve (iPRC) for synchronized dynamic behaviour,…
We introduce a system of pulse coupled oscillators that can change both their phases and frequencies; and prove that when there is a separation of time scales between phase and frequency adjustment the system converges to exact synchrony on…
We propose a method for optimizing mutual coupling functions to achieve fast and global synchronization between a pair of weakly coupled limit-cycle oscillators. Our method is based on phase reduction that provides a concise low-dimensional…
In this article I investigate the novel synchronization behaviors of evolving pulse-coupled oscillator networks. Unlike previous models, the time-varying mechanism is inspired by neural network development, where seldom used links die out…
In systems of coupled oscillators, the effects of complex signaling can be captured by time delays and phase shifts. Here, we show how time delays and phase shifts lead to different oscillator dynamics and how synchronization rates can be…
We study control of synchronization in weakly coupled oscillator networks by using a phase reduction approach. Starting from a general class of limit cycle oscillators we derive a phase model, which shows that delayed feedback control…
