[0002] The Industrial Internet is driving the digital transformation of the manufacturing industry and enhancing its competitiveness. Currently, the Industrial Internet has entered a new stage of large-scale development. In this process, the production line, as the core link in industrial manufacturing, is crucial for its intelligent and efficient operation. However, with the expansion of production scale and the increase in product complexity, traditional production line control models are increasingly revealing many drawbacks, such as rigid resource allocation, slow response, and poor coordination, making it difficult to meet the urgent needs of modern industry for high-precision and highly flexible production.
[0003] Therefore, how to achieve self-supervised optimal production process design and model parameter determination, so as to carry out automated management and control of actual industrial production, improve the efficiency of production line production, and reduce the production failure rate, is an urgent problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0008] Based on the target production line plan, a simulation environment corresponding to the industrial production requirements is constructed using preset simulation tools. The target production line plan is then simulated and run. Based on the simulation results, the optimal model parameters are iteratively determined, and the actual production line is managed and controlled based on these optimal model parameters.

[0028] Example 1
[0029] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a production line management and control method provided in an embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is applicable to situations where the management and control system utilizes large and small models to perform automated management and control based on industrial production needs. This method can be executed by a production line management and control device, which can be implemented in hardware and / or software. This production line management and control device can be configured in electronic devices, such as electronic devices equipped with a production line management and control system. Figure 1 As shown, the production line management and control method includes:
[0030] S101. If a product production request is received, the system will match the product with the local database based on industrial production needs to obtain the matching result.
[0031] A product production request is a request to simulate the production line of an industrial order to determine the optimal production process design and model parameters for actual production control. The product production request includes industrial production requirements. These requirements include at least one of the following: product type, quantity, and specifications. Specifications may include, for example, model number, customized accessories, color, and size. The local database stores historical products produced in simulation or actual production, along with their corresponding historical production lines. Matching results can be determined by whether a historical production line corresponding to the industrial product requirement exists in the local database.
[0032] Optionally, the production line management and control system can use the information receiving module to obtain multimodal industrial production needs from external systems such as cloud platforms, artificial intelligence applications, and intelligent management platforms. It can also consider that a production line management and control request has been detected when an industrial order issued by relevant personnel is detected.
[0033] Optionally, based on industrial production needs, a matching process is performed in the local information database to obtain matching results. This includes: filtering historical production products recorded in the local information database according to the product types required in the industrial production needs to obtain historical production line information for historical production products that match the product types required; and matching the historical production line information for each historical production product according to the product information required to determine whether there are historical production lines in the local information database that correspond to the industrial product needs, thereby obtaining matching results.
[0034] Optionally, after acquiring the industrial product demand, the control module of the production line management and control system can search for similar production records in the local information database according to the type of demanded products, that is, determine the historical production line information. It can further determine the similarity between the demanded product information and the historical production product information in the historical production line information. If there are historical production products with similarity that meet the threshold, such as when the similarity is greater than the preset similarity threshold, the historical plan of the historical production line can be adjusted according to the industrial production demand to obtain the subsequent target production line plan.
[0035] It should be noted that the production line should consist of multiple process links, core equipment, network equipment and computing power equipment, and the relevant distribution and connection information should be stored in a local database to form a historical production line.
[0036] For example, in a refrigerator production simulation scenario, the historical production line can include: production line 1, product 2, and production line 3. Production line 1 mainly produces single-door refrigerators, production line 2 mainly produces double-door refrigerators, and production line 3 can produce both types of refrigerators. Correspondingly, if there are associated production records in the local database, the most similar one can be matched from the historical production line, and then the relevant equipment and parameters can be adjusted according to the industrial product requirements to determine the target production line scheme.
[0037] Optionally, if the similarity between the demand product information corresponding to the industrial production demand and the historical production product information in the historical production line information is less than the preset similarity threshold, it is considered that the customization of the industrial production demand is large, that is, the matching result is that there is no related production record in the local information database. At this time, an available production line can be selected according to the product type, and then the target production line scheme can be determined based on the combination of the preset large model and small model.
[0038] S102. If the matching result is that there are no related production records in the local information database, determine the target production line scheme based on a combination of preset large and small models.
[0039] The system comprises two modules: a pre-defined large model for handling complex reasoning tasks, providing global decision support, and generating dynamic scheduling of production tasks and optimized resource allocation schemes—essentially using artificial intelligence to generate preliminary production line plans. The core function of the small model module group is to utilize machine learning models to execute lightweight, domain-specific tasks, improving response efficiency. Specifically, the small models are used to provide configuration parameters for each production stage in the production line script using machine learning models. The combination of the pre-defined large model and the small models means that the pre-defined large model is first used to determine the initial production line script, and then the small models are used at each production stage to determine the configuration parameters, thereby generating the target production line plan.
[0040] The target production line solution includes at least one production stage, and each production stage corresponds to a stage script optimized through a small model. Each production stage may include at least one piece of equipment. For example, the production stage may include loading, processing, quality inspection, unloading, and conveying. The loading, processing, quality inspection, and unloading stages may involve different types of processing equipment and part positioning sensors, while the conveying stage may involve conveyor belts, part positioning sensors, and gripping robotic arms, etc.
[0041] Optionally, the target production line scheme can be determined by combining a pre-set large model and a small model, including: processing industrial production needs based on the pre-set large model to generate a preliminary production line scheme; calling the pre-set small model for processing based on the production equipment, equipment type and production activity information involved in each production step in the preliminary production line scheme to obtain production configuration and parameter information; and adjusting the preliminary production line scheme based on the production configuration and parameter information to determine the target production line scheme.
[0042] The preliminary production line plan refers to the plan generated by the pre-set large model based on the needs of industrial production. The preliminary production line plan may include at least one production step in the production process, as well as the requirements of each production step, and indicate the main production process steps and error and exception handling methods.
[0043] Optionally, the control module in the production line management and control system can parse the initial production line plan into multiple processing step requirements of the available production line, and for each processing step, match the corresponding industrial small model of the equipment to process the processing step requirements, obtain configuration parameters, and finally summarize to obtain an executable production plan, that is, determine the target production line plan.
[0044] Optionally, the preset large-scale model in this invention is an industrial large-scale model, which generates a preliminary production line plan that is refined to a detailed plan for each production link. The production equipment matches the production line, and the equipment configuration requirements correspond to a clear operation sequence and its preliminary parameters. Based on the core equipment of different processes, corresponding small models are selected for parameter prediction, so that the generated production parameters cover the preliminary parameters, thus obtaining the target production line plan.
[0045] Optionally, after determining each production step in the initial production line plan, the optimal small model can be dynamically matched according to the task complexity and equipment type, and multiple small models can be called in parallel through the collaborative interface.
[0046] Optionally, the small model corresponding to the abnormal production process can generate improved production line script parameters based on the abnormal data and pass them to the simulation module to re-simulate the production process.
[0047] S103. Based on the target production line plan, construct a simulation environment corresponding to the industrial production requirements using preset simulation tools, and simulate the operation of the target production line plan. Based on the simulation results, iteratively determine the optimal model parameters, and manage and control the actual production line according to the optimal model parameters.
[0048] The preset simulation tools can include preset production logistics simulation tools, network simulators, and edge computing simulation toolkits. Preset production logistics simulation tools are used to build geometric / behavioral models of production equipment and simulate production processes and cycle times; examples include Plant-Simulation (digital factory simulation), DELMIA (interactive manufacturing application software for digital enterprises), and AUTOMOD (3D discrete event simulation tool). Network simulators are used to simulate network topology, latency / packet loss rate, and protocol interactions; examples include NS-3 (discrete event network simulator), OMNeT++ (object-oriented modular network simulation platform), and OPNET (Optimized Network Engineering Tool). Edge computing simulation toolkits are used to simulate edge device hardware (CPU / memory), task scheduling, and load; examples include EdgeSimPy (edge computing resource management strategy modeling and simulation framework), EdgeCloudSim (a Java-based simulation framework), and OpenStack (open cloud operating system).
[0049] Optionally, based on the simulation environment, the production process can be simulated and the decision results can be predicted. The production control schemes generated by the preset large model and small model can be verified to obtain the expected execution results of the production line, thereby obtaining the optimal production process design and optimal model parameters.
[0050] Optionally, based on the target production line scheme, a simulation environment corresponding to the industrial production requirements is constructed using preset simulation tools. This includes: based on the target production line scheme and using preset simulation tools, constructing production equipment models, network models, and edge computing models respectively; and performing collaborative simulation integration of the production equipment models, network models, and edge computing models involved in the target production line scheme based on the distribution relationship between production equipment, network equipment, and edge computing equipment in the target production line scheme, so as to construct a simulation environment corresponding to the industrial production requirements.
[0051] The primary purpose of coordinated simulation integration is to achieve data synchronization across multiple tools (such as device status, network, and edge computing), which can be implemented using tools like HLA (High Level Architecture) and Docker. Distribution relationships can include information such as device spacing, connectivity, and network interconnection methods. Equipment information for production equipment can include device type and model; for example, device type could be processing equipment or conveying equipment.
[0052] Optionally, the simulation module in the production line management and control system can be used to establish a simulation environment, including equipment, network, and applications, for the target production line scheme generated by the control module. Within the simulation environment, the correctness of the production scheme can be verified using various loads, such as no-load tests, small-batch tests, and large-batch tests. The main function of the simulation module is to construct a virtual production line, simulating multiple production devices and their industrial programs, simulating the production process, and predicting the execution results.
[0053] Optionally, based on the target production line scheme and using preset simulation tools, a production equipment model, a network model, and an edge computing model are constructed respectively, including: based on a preset production logistics simulation tool, constructing a 3D model of the equipment and defining the physical attributes of the 3D model of the equipment according to the equipment information of the production equipment in the target production line scheme; based on a preset network simulator, constructing a network model and configuring the link parameters of the network model according to the network topology information in the target production line scheme; and based on a preset edge computing simulation toolkit, constructing an edge computing model according to the parameters of the edge devices in the target production line scheme and configuring the preprocessing, early warning, and control functions of the edge computing model.
[0054] The 3D model of the equipment can recreate the equipment's dimensions and moving parts (such as robotic arm joints and conveyor belt rollers). This 3D model can be imported from pre-defined 3D CAD (Computer-Aided Design) software or product model data exchange standard files. The physical attributes of the 3D model can include the machine tool's machining range (X-axis distance, Y-axis distance, Z-axis distance), AGV (Autonomous Guided Vehicle) acceleration, sensor detection range (visual camera field of view), fixture types, and more.
[0055] Optionally, the distribution of production equipment, network equipment, and edge computing equipment can be completed based on the layout of all equipment on the production line and the workshop space, so as to truly reflect the production line configuration such as equipment spacing, connection relationship, and network interconnection method, and realize the simulation of the spatial distribution of the production line.
[0056] Optionally, a 3D model of the equipment can be constructed based on the behavior and logic of different production equipment. For processing equipment, a production process script can be used to simulate the entire process of "feeding, processing, quality inspection, and unloading". Parameters such as processing time (e.g., 30 seconds for a lathe to process one part) and failure probability (e.g., one failure per day, 20 minutes of maintenance time) can be set in the script.
[0057] Optionally, for conveying equipment, such as autonomous navigation transport vehicles, it is necessary to simulate "path planning logic" (such as obstacle avoidance and priority scheduling), and for conveyor belts, it is necessary to associate the cycle time of upstream and downstream equipment (such as the conveyor belt starting to transport materials after the preceding machine tool unloads the material).
[0058] Optionally, for the simulation of the control logic of production equipment, a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) simulation module, such as the S7-1200 interface of Plant Simulation, can be used to simulate the closed-loop control of "sensor triggering, PLC logic judgment, and equipment action" (such as part arrival sensor triggering, robotic arm grasping).
[0059] Optionally, the network topology of the target production line scheme in the physical workshop can be built in the network simulator to restore the topology. Specifically, core switches, edge switches, autonomous navigation transport vehicles / cameras and other terminal nodes can be placed, the network protocol address range of the devices can be set, and the network link bandwidth of 1Gbps and latency of 1ms, the data network link bandwidth of 100Mbps and latency of 5ms can be controlled to simulate the signal attenuation caused by workshop wall obstruction (packet loss rate of 0.5%), that is, to configure the link parameters.
[0060] Optionally, protocol and data flow simulation can be performed based on the network model. Specifically, the OPCUA (Open Platform Communications Unified Architecture) protocol can be configured between the PLC and the edge gateway, and the RTSP (Real-Time Streaming Protocol) protocol can be configured between the vision camera and the edge server to deploy an industrial protocol stack. For data flow simulation, two typical data flows can be generated. The first is a control flow, such as from the PLC or machine tool, 100 bytes / frame, sent at a frequency of 10Hz. The second is a data flow, such as from the camera or edge, 4MB / frame, sent at a frequency of 1Hz, and the network QoS (Quality of Service) can be verified to ensure it meets the requirements.
[0061] Optionally, hardware resource modeling can be performed based on edge device parameters to construct an edge computing model. The edge device parameters may include edge gateway (2 CPU cores, 4GB memory, 64GB storage), edge server (8 CPU cores, 32GB memory, 512GB storage), and resource usage thresholds (such as triggering load balancing when CPU utilization is >80%).
[0062] Optionally, different edge applications can be deployed in the edge computing model for data preprocessing (filtering sensor outliers, processing latency ≤20ms), fault early warning (predicting faults using long short-term memory networks based on equipment vibration data, processing latency ≤50ms), and real-time control (adjusting AGV speed, response latency ≤30ms).
[0063] Optionally, an edge computing model can be used to simulate task scheduling and set task priorities (control tasks > early warning tasks > statistics tasks). When the edge server is overloaded, non-real-time tasks (such as production report statistics) can be migrated to idle edge gateways.
[0064] Optionally, the target production line scheme is simulated. Based on the simulation results, the optimal model parameters are iteratively determined. The actual production line is then managed and controlled based on these optimal model parameters. This includes: simulating the control process of each production device in the target production line scheme, simulating the data flow between network devices, and simulating task scheduling between edge computing devices in the simulation environment to simulate the production process of the target production line scheme; analyzing the production line status of the target production line scheme based on the simulation data to optimize and adjust the production line script, preset large model, and small model, and iteratively determining the optimal model parameters; and finally, managing and controlling the actual production line based on the optimal model parameters.
[0065] Optionally, during the simulation operation, a monitoring module can be used to monitor abnormal events in the simulation module, review and evaluate industrial codes, equipment configurations and execution results, monitor system status in real time, evaluate performance and trigger optimization, identify production equipment parameters and results after each round of simulation, identify anomalies based on a specific classifier, adjust industrial codes and equipment configurations based on evaluation results, and after the equipment execution sequence, equipment operation and operation parameters of the entire production control scheme are correct, it is determined that the entire production process has been successfully completed in the simulation module, and the industrial codes and equipment configurations associated with the target production line scheme are sent to the corresponding equipment for actual production management and control.
[0066] For example, the steps for the simulation module to implement virtual operation of the production line can be as follows:
[0067] 1) Initialize virtual production equipment, network equipment, and edge computing facilities: Initialize the software for each production device, network device, and edge computing facility in the production line to ensure software version compatibility and applicability to the current production line scripts. This can be achieved by storing software and hardware compatibility relationships in the cloud and performing version compatibility verification on the cloud side.
[0068] 2) Single-machine simulated production line script configuration: The production line script is broken down into the configuration of each device. It is checked whether each virtual device can run its own code normally, whether the parameter settings of the device meet the software requirements, and the simulation results are fed back to the supervision module.
[0069] This includes pre-training specialized mini-models, such as a PLC mini-model trained according to the PLC code, which will generate parameters that conform to the PLC. Dedicated mini-models can be configured for commonly used equipment in industrial scenarios, and finally shared and used through the model cloud ecosystem.
[0070] 3) Virtual Production Line Online Simulation: Run the entire production line script to verify the coordination and cooperation between various parts of the virtual production line, ensuring smooth and error-free transmission, conveying, and assembly actions between various devices, and feeding the simulation results back to the monitoring module. Test the connection and linkage between virtual devices, such as the conveying of virtual materials between virtual devices, ensuring that materials can smoothly move from one device to the next, and that the connections between devices are accurate and error-free. Verify whether the signal transmission between devices is timely and effective, and whether the control system can accurately control and adjust according to the operating status of the equipment.
[0071] Optionally, by identifying monitoring information, transmission conditions such as excessive time delay, spatial mismatch, excessively large parameters, and excessively small parameters can be identified.
[0072] 4) Monitor the real-time simulation results of the process: Monitor and debug each process in the production line in real time, and feed back the simulation results to the supervision module.
[0073] 5) Simulated production load: After the simulated production is successful, the production quantity is increased on the virtual production line to verify the stability and reliability of the production line, and the simulation results are fed back to the monitoring module.
[0074] 6) Simulation Process and Result Supervision and Analysis: After receiving the real-time simulation data generated in the above steps, the supervision module judges the production line status based on industry knowledge or a classifier. If the production line script is correct, the relevant configurations or codes are sent to the physical equipment. If there are errors in the relevant process and script parameters, the model tuning module processes them to obtain more suitable parameter values and updates them to the production line script. If errors in the production line script cause simulation process abnormalities, the results are fed back to the control module and the large industrial model for first optimizing the large model and then regenerating the production line script.
[0075] 7) Industrial Large and Small Model Optimization: Based on the process data and simulation results of the simulated production, various aspects of the virtual production line are analyzed and evaluated to further optimize the commands, parameters, processes, and equipment of the production line script. Automated hyperparameter search is achieved based on a preset framework.
[0076] Optionally, if the simulation runs normally, there is no need to optimize the large and small models. If there is a coordination anomaly, the large model needs to be analyzed and the overall plan adjusted. If there is a equipment failure, the production equipment model needs to be adjusted. If there is a network failure, the network model needs to be adjusted. If there is insufficient computing power, the large model needs to be analyzed and the computing power allocation adjusted. If there is a performance anomaly, the corresponding small model needs to be handled.
[0077] The technical solution of this invention, upon receiving a product production request, matches the data in a local database based on industrial production needs to obtain a matching result. If the matching result indicates no associated production record in the local database, a target production line scheme is determined based on a combination of preset large and small models. Based on the target production line scheme, a simulation environment corresponding to the industrial production needs is constructed using preset simulation tools, and the target production line scheme is simulated. Based on the simulation results, the optimal model parameters are iteratively determined, and the actual production line is managed and controlled according to these optimal parameters. This allows for iterative simulation based on industrial production needs, achieving self-supervised optimal production process design and model parameter determination, thereby enabling automated management and control of actual industrial production, improving production line efficiency, and reducing production failure rates.
[0078] Preferably, in the field of smart home appliances, the production line management and control request can be a simulated production demand for a specific model of refrigerator. Specific tags include model, color, accessories, and optional functions. Parameters include adjustable data such as the quantity and size of accessories. Using a large model, available production lines can be selected based on product demand. Combining this with the latest spatiotemporal information, production lines capable of producing this type of product with relatively low workloads can be identified. Then, a production script is generated based on the number of processes in the production line structure. The production script includes time information and specific production content. The time information specifies the production start time to prevent new tasks from interfering with other production tasks.
[0079] For example, a preliminary production line scheme for manufacturing refrigerators may include the following production stages: component pretreatment, cabinet forming, refrigeration system assembly, electrical system integration, whole machine testing, and packaging. The production equipment involved in the component pretreatment stage may be a high-pressure washer, a drying oven, and a rust removal and grinding machine. The production steps involved in the component pretreatment stage may be component cleaning and component drying. The production activity information involved in the component pretreatment stage may be a cleaning pressure of 0.3-0.5 MPa and a drying temperature of 80-100℃.
[0080] Example 2
[0081] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of a production line management and control system provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Based on the above embodiments, this embodiment provides a preferred example of how the various modules in the production line management and control system interact to achieve automated management and control of industrial production needs.
[0082] like Figure 2 As shown, the production line management and control system includes: an information receiving module, a simulation module, a control module, an event module, a monitoring module, a large model module, a small model module group, a model optimization module, a local information database, and a control information distribution module.
[0083] Optionally, the information receiving module is used to acquire multimodal input information or obtain industrial orders from the management platform of artificial intelligence applications or intelligent agents; the simulation module may include equipment simulation, topology simulation, and link simulation. The control information dissemination module is used to interact with the managed equipment and transmit the target production line plan.
[0084] Optionally, the information receiving module may include multiple input sources such as natural language descriptions, structured parameter tables, sensor data streams, and image information, and can automatically identify the demand intent and production goals through the semantic parsing module.
[0085] Optionally, the core function of the control module is to dynamically schedule production tasks and optimize resource allocation. Based on intelligent algorithms such as genetic algorithms and simulated annealing algorithms, it completes the scheduling of all processes on the entire production line. The core function of the large model module is to handle complex reasoning tasks, provide global decision support, and generate schemes for dynamically scheduling production tasks and optimizing resource allocation, i.e., the initial production line script. The core function of the small model module group is to use machine learning models to provide the parameters configured for each step in the production line script.
[0086] Optionally, the control module can determine whether to generate a new production control scheme based on the matching of the local information database, thus determining the final generated control scheme. Specifically, if the local information database contains historical production records for the product, it triggers a "macro-micro" dual-model collaborative process, calling the algorithm in the small model module group to adjust the parameters of the existing scheme, and automatically fine-tuning the execution strategy based on the current equipment operating status and process cycle time. Then, the production line script is transmitted to the production equipment through the control information distribution module. If the local information database does not contain historical production records for the product, the control module calls the industry large model and the dedicated small model sequentially to generate the production line script. The simulation module is used to build a simulation verification environment, simulating the spatial layout of the production line, equipment hardware and software, network type and connection relationships. The environment parameters are dynamically adjusted based on simulation feedback to keep the simulation state consistent with the actual production constraints, thereby obtaining predictive operating results. During the timer cycle, the simulation module executes the production line script generated by the large and small models on the virtual production line, forming a spatiotemporally consistent predictive environment for the production line, and simulating the product production process.
[0087] The core function of the simulation module is to construct a virtual production line, simulating multiple production devices and their industrial programs, simulating the production process, and predicting the execution results. During the timer cycle, the simulation module executes the production line script generated by the large and small models on the virtual production line, forming a spatiotemporally consistent prediction environment for the production line, and simulating the product production process.
[0088] The performance indicators, abnormal events, and equipment response data during the simulation process will be captured in real time by the event module and summarized to the supervision module.
[0089] The core function of the event module is to monitor abnormal events in the simulation module. The core function of the monitoring module is to analyze faults, anomalies, or problems in the events, evaluate the performance of the current simulation scheme, provide optimization suggestions, and trigger optimizations. For example, if parameters such as equipment current or shaft temperature are detected to be too high, the module compares them with rules to identify the cause.
[0090] The core function of the model tuning module is to continuously optimize model parameters and improve prediction accuracy. The core function of the local database is to store localized data, supporting fast access and privacy protection. For example, storing sensitive data such as device status and work orders on edge devices. The core function of the information receiving module is to collect and preprocess external data. For example, acquiring physical signals such as temperature and pressure through multimodal sensors, or receiving user text / voice commands. The core function of the control information dissemination module is to send decision commands to actuators to achieve closed-loop control. For example, controlling the insertion depth and speed of the dummy bar in a continuous casting machine system.
[0091] It should be noted that as production lines become increasingly intelligent, various production equipment, edge computing devices, cloud services, and network devices require coordinated control. Previously, intelligent agent-related work focused on auxiliary management, requiring manual intervention for joint debugging and final parameter determination, with a high degree of professional involvement. This invention addresses the real-time, close collaborative relationships in industrial production processes by constructing an intelligent agent production line simulation module. This module provides unified simulation and supervision of different equipment and their collaborative processes, ultimately forming an intelligent management, operation, and dynamic optimization solution. It can fill the gap in the modulation work between large-scale production schemes and execution code, gradually replacing manual debugging and error correction.
[0092] Preferably, the production line management and control system may further include a task perception and computing network collaborative scheduling module. This module is used to allocate tasks and coordinate resources among different computing nodes, network links, and production equipment, ensuring the real-time performance and execution consistency of the production control scheme. The task perception and computing network collaborative scheduling module may include: a task perception unit, a scheduling decision unit, and a collaborative control unit. The task perception unit monitors the execution progress, equipment load, and network communication status of each stage of the production line, forming a quantifiable resource status matrix. The scheduling decision unit, based on the task priorities, execution order, and data dependencies generated by the large model, performs task mapping and path planning for each computing node (cloud, edge, terminal), ensuring that critical tasks are executed first. When the collaborative control unit detects network congestion, computing power occupancy, or equipment timing conflicts, it can automatically adjust the task allocation ratio and communication channels to maintain the timing consistency and transmission reliability of control commands.
[0093] Optionally, the task awareness and computing network collaborative scheduling module has network link prediction and computing power assessment functions. It can predict communication latency and processing load before task execution and dynamically adjust scheduling parameters. The scheduling results are summarized by the control module to form an integrated execution plan for "control-network-computing" and fed back to the simulation module for verification and the monitoring module for performance checking. By introducing the task awareness and computing network collaborative scheduling module, task-level resource collaboration and dynamic scheduling can be realized in complex computing network environments, improving the execution accuracy and system stability of production control schemes under multi-device and multi-network conditions.
