ABSTRACT:
A method, a device, and a bus system for synchronizing at least two buses having at least one bus user, a global time being determined in each bus, and the deviations in the global times of the buses being determined from the global times, the buses being connected via at least one user and the deviations in the individual global times being transmitted to at least one bus user, and the global times of the buses connected via at least one user being adjusted to one another as a function of the deviations in the global times, so that the buses are synchronized with respect to the global times. The buses may include TTCAN buses.
