> We also need to implement the synchronization between workers and parameter 
> server to be able to bring more parameter update strategies, e.g., the 
> stale-synchronous strategy needs a hyperparameter "staleness" to define the 
> waiting interval. The idea is to maintain a vector clock recording all 
> workers' clock in the server. Each time when an iteration in worker side 
> finishes, it sends a signal to server for incrementing its clock and then it 
> sends another request for asking whether to wait or not. When the server 
> receives this request, it will determine whether the worker should continue 
> or not according to the different strategies. So we could define BSP with 
> "staleness==0" and SSP with "staleness==N". For the ASP, we do not need to 
> calculate the time gap between the quickest worker and the slowest one.
