Scientific paper

The second postulate of special relativity, namely, the equivalence of inertial frames, implies that all clocks must run identically across inertial frames. Under this principle, global clock synchronization may be feasible if an appropriate procedure can be developed. It is well known that synchronization within an inertial frame using the methods of light rays or slow separation of clocks results in synchronization that is specific to that inertial frame. This paper describes a new procedure to synchronize clocks co-moving with different inertial frames, and analyzes its effectiveness.
