Abstract: For global navigation satellite system (GNSS)-independent operation of auxiliary PNT systems, one or more ground stations of the auxiliary system have access to a non-GNSS source of precision timing. That source and known locations of the ground stations may be used to derive timing corrections to account for imperfect clocks in the satellites for non-purpose-built satellite systems being used for PNT. Crosslinks between satellites and/or propagation of timing correction through other ground stations are used to better control the timing and resulting precession of PNT in the PNT auxiliary system. The timing correction may be provided as a service to end users, other constellations, and/or other satellite operators.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for managing a distributed network of function execution environments. In some examples, a function router registers a plurality of execution endpoints on a catalog of execution endpoints and functions, each of the plurality of execution endpoints including a respective runtime environment capable of executing one or more functions. The function router receives, from a client, a request to execute a particular function and, based on the request, queries the catalog for the particular function and execution endpoints associated with the particular function. The function router receives a query response identifying one or more execution endpoints associated with the particular function, and selects an execution endpoint for executing the particular function based on one or more criteria associated with the request. The function router then sends to the client a response identifying the execution endpoint selected for executing the particular function.
