In this paper, we present a new multimedia stream synchronization mechanism based on a real-time object model named Time-triggered Message-triggered Object (TMO). Especially, the global time and time-triggered features of TMO are used to achieve inter-location synchronization among multiple receivers. The usage of the global clock not only enhances the accuracy of the synchronization among distributed nodes, but also provides developers simple but powerful means for specifying the synchronization requirements from the design time. By showing experimental results of the one-sender two-receivers streaming application, we suggest, in this paper, that this global time based approach is also practically meaningful.
