Abstract
Systems, apparatuses, methods, and software are described herein that provide enhanced satellite link-coupled communication nodes. In one example, a parent communication node includes a communication interface configured to communicate with a plurality of child communication nodes over corresponding satellite communication links. The parent communication node includes a resource manager configured to determine physical resources local to each of the plurality of child communication nodes, establish a pool of resources from among the physical resources, and responsive to a request for execution of an application, allocate resources from the pool of resources for execution of the application at one or more selected child communication nodes. The parent communication node can initiate execution of the application using the allocated resources at the one or more selected child communication nodes.
