Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The 5G system fails to comprehensively consider computing power and communication requirements for user services, leading to inadequate resource allocation and scheduling, which affects the overall service experience for computing sessions.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus for releasing computing sessions that involve coordinated actions between the Session Management Function (SMF), Policy Control Function (PCF), and Computing Power Management Function to manage and release communication and computing resources based on request messages.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the 5G system only provides allocation of communication resources, then the communication resource management is simple, but it cannot comprehensively consider computing power requirements and communication requirements, leading to inadequate resource allocation
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges communication resource management and computing power resource management into a unified framework. The SMF coordinates with both the PCF (for communication policies) and the computing power management function (for computing resources), enabling joint optimization of both resource types within a single system architecture.
Solution Approach 2:
The session management function (SMF) is designed to perform multiple functions: managing communication resources, coordinating computing power resources, and orchestrating policy control for both domains. This multi-functional approach allows comprehensive consideration of both communication and computing requirements without requiring separate independent systems.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the system cannot jointly optimize scheduling and allocation of communication and computing resources, then the system complexity is low, but it fails to provide comprehensive service experience for user computing services
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements feedback mechanisms where the SMF receives status information from both communication networks and computing power networks, processes this information through policy control functions, and dynamically adjusts resource allocation decisions. This closed-loop feedback enables joint optimization by continuously adapting to changing requirements of both communication and computing services.
3Productivity
If operator networks cannot comprehensively consider communication and computing requirements, then the network configuration is simple, but it cannot optimize configuration and scheduling of communication and computing resources
Solution Approach 1:
The session management function (SMF) acts as an intermediary that coordinates between communication network elements and computing power network elements. It receives requests, processes them through policy control functions, and manages the interaction between the two networks, enabling optimized resource scheduling without requiring direct complex integration between all network components.
Data Source
AI summary
A computing session release method and device and a readable storage medium, pertaining to the field of communication technologies. The method includes: obtaining, by an SMF and/or a computing power management function, a first message, where the first message is used for requesting release of communication resources and/or computing power resources of a computing session; and performing, by the SMF and/or the computing power management function, corresponding resource release.
