Solution Overview

Problem

The challenge of efficiently managing computing resources in model platforms to balance cost and performance, where deploying more resources leads to waste during low demand but insufficient resources cause service delays during high demand, necessitating a resource scheduling solution that improves utilization and reduces costs.

Innovation Solution

A model platform-based scheduling method that involves collaborative scheduling of models on a computing cluster in both the model orchestration and load balancing dimensions, using an optimization model to determine a target scheduling strategy that optimizes model deployment and traffic allocation, ensuring efficient resource utilization and reduced latency.

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If more computing power is deployed to ensure efficient service performance, then service quality is improved, but service cost increases and computing resources are wasted during low demand periods

Engineering Contradiction:

Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic resource scheduling that automatically adjusts computing resource allocation based on real-time inference demand. The system monitors traffic patterns and dynamically scales computing power deployment, transitioning from static over-provisioning to adaptive resource management that matches supply with actual demand conditions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes key operational parameters including resource allocation ratios, scheduling priorities, and load distribution coefficients based on demand conditions. By adjusting these parameters dynamically, the system optimizes the balance between service performance and resource utilization efficiency under different traffic scenarios.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Loss of energy

If fewer computing resources are used to control cost, then service cost is reduced, but the model platform becomes prone to paralysis or severe service delays during inference demand surges

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveservice costVSAvoidservice stability
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of energyVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary resource preparation and pre-positioning based on predicted demand patterns. By anticipating inference demand surges and pre-allocating computing resources in advance, the system ensures capacity availability when needed while avoiding continuous over-provisioning during low-demand periods.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements feedback mechanisms that continuously monitor service performance metrics, resource utilization rates, and demand patterns. This feedback loop enables the system to detect early signs of demand surges and automatically adjust resource allocation to maintain service stability while controlling costs.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Productivity

If more computing nodes are deployed to handle inference traffic, then load capacity is improved, but resource utilization rate decreases due to instability of inference demands

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveload capacityVSAvoidresource utilization rate
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges multiple scheduling dimensions including model orchestration and load balancing into a unified collaborative scheduling framework. This integration enables coordinated resource allocation across computing nodes, improving both load capacity and utilization efficiency by eliminating suboptimal decisions from isolated scheduling approaches.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The system creates a universal scheduling mechanism that handles multiple objectives simultaneously - load distribution, resource utilization optimization, and service performance maintenance. This multi-functional scheduling approach allows the same infrastructure to efficiently serve varying demand patterns without requiring dedicated resources for each function.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)
