1. A method for managing a machine with a latency-dependent application installed, the method comprising:
receiving geographical information associated with a work site;
receiving historical communications information associated with the work site, wherein the historical communications information includes a communications event, a duration of the communications event, and a frequency of the communications event; and
analyzing the historical communications information and the geographical information;
generating an instruction for implementing the latency-dependent application of the machine based on a latency requirement of the latency-dependent application, wherein the latency requirement includes a time duration requirement for implementing the latency-dependent application during the communications event; and
implementing the latency-dependent application of the machine based on the instruction.
