Abstract
The disclosed computer-implemented method may include systems for optimizing a network environment that is synchronized with a precise time source. For example, a disclosed system can increase the accuracy and efficiency of the network environment with a method for smoothly handing off synchronization control within a group of time servers, each projecting a precise time. Additionally, another disclosed system can further increase the accuracy and efficiency of the network environment with a method for optimizing the latencies of the network environment when scheduling and routing tasks among the network environment members. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
