Yup. Going back to the principles of distributed systems, I’m really wondering how “NTP but machine learning” can be used to minimize the clock skew to hundreds of nanoseconds with software only. The RTT between two servers can vary a lot — and way past the calculated minimum RTT.
The figures (eg $21M) and names dropped (eg Stanford) are an appeal to authority, which does make me curious.
I’d love to see some papers, I went through all of Balaji Prabhakar‘s publications (titles only), and didn’t see a single paper that sounded like “NTP but machine learning.
If anyone else knows more about this, I’d love to hear from you. Surely $21M doesn’t get dropped with at least someone doing due dill on the tech?
