The Virtual Primary Reference Time Clock: A Next-Generation Timing Architecture for Critical Infrastructures Date: Aug. 27 Sponsor: Microchip Summary: Accuracy, precision and stability have traditionally been used to describe the requirements for timing and synchronization. Although these timing metrics remain vital, a new set of requirements have become equally important with the goal of delivering better resiliency in critical infrastructure: prevention, restoration and recovery. A variety of technologies are being discussed to create a back-up to GNSS. The answer to greater resiliency does not lie in the number of timing sources, but rather in a timing architecture that incorporates these technologies. This presentation will discuss how a Virtual Primary Reference Timing Clock architecture is optimized for resilient timing. Speakers: • Tony Flavin, manager, strategic research, Chronos Technology Ltd. • Jim Olsen, senior solution architect, Microchip • Lee Cosart, chair of ATIS SYNC Committee, Microchip
