Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of timeVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by pre-selecting computing nodes based on delay information before actual resource allocation is needed. The first network element determines a target computing node from preselected computing nodes based on delay characteristics, enabling proactive optimization rather than reactive adjustment.

Inventive Principle:
