A method of processing media content in Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) Network Based Media Processing (NBMP) includes obtaining a plurality of tasks for processing the media content, providing an interface between an NBMP workflow manager and a cloud manager by providing an NBMP Link application program interface (API), which links the plurality of tasks together, identifying an amount of network resources to be used for processing the media content, by using the NBMP Link API, and processing the media content in accordance with the identified amount of network resources.

Systems and methods for managing network resources are disclosed. One method can comprise receiving first information relating to network traffic parameters and receiving second information relating to one or more contextual events having an effect on the network traffic parameters. The first information and the second information and be correlated. And one or more network resources can be allocated based on the correlation of the first information and the second information.

The present disclosure discloses a method and apparatus for changing a resource state, a terminal, and a storage medium, which belong to the field of smart home. A system for changing a resource state that includes a first collection resource, a first intermediate-level resource, and leaf node resources can be established. By making the first collection resource obtain link information of each leaf node resource whose resource state needs to be changed, a request that includes a default interface of the leaf node resource may be generated for the leaf node resource, such that a state of the leaf node resource can be changed accurately by the system. Therefore, the present disclosure enables the control request issued by a client to be recognized and executed by each leaf node resource, thereby increasing reliability and stability of system control.

The application discloses a packet transmission method, an apparatus, and a network device. In an embodiment, a first network device obtains identification information corresponding to a service flow, and reserves a forwarding resource based on the identification information. The forwarding resource is used by the first network device to forward the service flow to a second network device. The first network device further sends a packet including the identification information to the second network device, and the second network device reserves a corresponding forwarding resource based on the identification information in the packet. Network devices perform resource reservation hop by hop by sending the packet including the identification information, and do not need to perform resource reservation based on a transmission path that is pre-calculated and planned, so that load of the network device or a controller is reduced, and resource reservation flexibility is improved.

Examples described herein relate to method, resource management system, and non-transitory machine-readable medium for redeploying a computing resource. Data related to a performance parameter corresponding to a plurality of computing resources deployed on a plurality of host-computing nodes may be received. The performance parameter is associated with one or both of: communication between computing resources of the plurality of computing resources, or communication of the plurality of computing resources with a network device. Further, for a computing resource of the plurality of computing resources, a candidate host-computing node is determined from the plurality of host-computing nodes based on the data related to the performance parameter and the computing resource may be redeployed on the candidate host-computing node.

Various arrangements for increasing a transfer rate of a data transfer via satellite are presented. A satellite gateway may set an accelerated set of communication parameters that control communication between the satellite gateway and the satellite terminal via the satellite and between the satellite gateway and the content source to an accelerated transfer rate between the content source and the satellite terminal. A first set of data may be transferred from the content source to the satellite terminal using the set of communication parameters. After transferring the first set of data, the satellite gateway may adjust the initial set of communication parameters to an adjusted set of communication parameters. The adjusted transfer rate can be lower than the accelerated transfer rate.

Systems, apparatuses, methods, and computer-readable media, are provided for offloading computationally intensive tasks from one computer device to another computer device taking into account, inter alia, energy consumption and latency budgets for both computation and communication. Embodiments may also exploit multiple radio access technologies (RATs) in order to find opportunities to offload computational tasks by taking into account, for example, network/RAT functionalities, processing, offloading coding/encoding mechanisms, and/or differentiating traffic between different RATs. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

A computing environment includes a computing service provider and an edge computing network that has computing and storage devices that extend computing resources of the computing service provider to remote users of the computing service provider The edge computing network configured to provide tenant-based localized services to users of the computing service provider.

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including an apparatus for generating clusters of building blocks of compute nodes using an optical network. In one aspect, a method includes receiving request data specifying requested compute nodes for a computing workload. The request data specifies a target n-dimensional arrangement of the compute nodes. A selection is made, from a superpod that includes a set of building blocks that each include an m-dimensional arrangement of compute nodes, a subset of the building blocks that, when combined, match the target n-dimensional arrangement specified by the request data. The set of building blocks are connected to an optical network that includes one or more optical circuit switches. A workload cluster of compute nodes that includes the subset of the building blocks is generated. The generating includes configuring, for each dimension of the workload cluster, respective routing data for the one or more optical circuit switches.

Device group partitions and a settlement platform are provided. In some embodiments, device group partitions (e.g., partitions of devices based on associated device groups) are provided. In some embodiments, a settlement platform service is provided. In some embodiments, a settlement platform service is provided for partitioned devices. In some embodiments, collecting device generated service usage information for one or more devices in wireless communication on a wireless network; and aggregating the device generated service usage information for a settlement platform for the one or more devices in wireless communication on the wireless network is provided. In some embodiments, a settlement platform implements a service billing allocation and/or a service/transactional revenue share among one or more partners. In some embodiments, service usage information includes micro-CDRs, which are used for CDR mediation or reconciliation that provides for service usage accounting on any device activity that is desired. In some embodiments, each device activity that is desired to be associated with a billing event is assigned a micro-CDR transaction code, and a service processor of the device is programmed to account for that activity associated with that transaction code. In some embodiments, a service processor executing on a wireless communications device periodically reports (e.g., during each heartbeat or based on any other periodic, push, and/or pull communication technique(s)) micro-CDR usage measures to, for example, a service controller or some other network element for CDR mediation or reconciliation.
