Abstract
A method for synchronizing a distributed application includes: transmitting, by an application backend, application data packets to an application frontend; transmitting, by the application backend, a synchronization request packet to the application frontend; retrieving, by the application backend, a backend timestamp from a server clock; retrieving, by the application frontend, a frontend timestamp from a terminal device clock and transmitting the retrieved frontend timestamp to the application backend; calculating, by the application backend, a time offset of the frontend timestamp from the retrieved backend timestamp and using the calculated time offset for synchronization; detecting, by a scheduler, an actual state of a communication connection and transmitting control data to the application backend; and adapting, by the application backend, transmission of synchronization request packets based on the control data indicating jitter of the synchronization request packets preventing the distributed application from being executed synchronously.
