resources — such as bandwidth, latency, and reliability
— to implement the integrated scheduling of computing
power and transmission capabilities. For example,
the management and control platform can select an
optimal path based on various service requirements,
such as bandwidth and deterministic latency, as well as
corresponding network resources to implement fast service
computing.
