ABSTRACT
Fukuoka University provided the first public Network Time Protocol (NTP) service using GPS in Japan in October 1993 to the world. This year will mark 31 years since its commencement of service. Meanwhile, NTP traffic has massively increased, causing both direct and indirect issues for the campus network. In an effort to find the causes and take countermeasures to this issue we have examined the NTP packets, uncovering the necessity and importance of setting up ingress filtering.
In this paper, we outline the open NTP service as well as its traffic, examining packets and the necessity for ingress filtering.

Research on High Precision Time Synchronization of Android Based on NTP
ICIIP '19: Proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Intelligent Information ProcessingNetwork Time Protocol (NTP) is one of the key technologies for time synchronization of mobile devices. It is very necessary for its research on Android platform. This paper designs an Android time synchronization system based on NTP for the requirement ...
A Time Synchronization Method for NTP
RTCSA '99: Proceedings of the Sixth International Conference on Real-Time Computing Systems and ApplicationsThis paper introduces an implementation of a clock synchronization method for NTP(Network Time Protocol). NTP is widely used and an effective application protocol in maintaining time synchronization over the network. But the performance of NTP depends ...
