进一步的,TA功能实体可以接收来自网络内部的任务和QoS参数,也可以通过网络能力开放(network capability exposure,NCE)技术接收来自第三方实体的服务请求,服务请求包括第三实体请求的服务需求,服务需求可以包括工作流和QoS参数,工作流包括至少一个任务的任务流,其内部的一个任务的执行结果可以为另一任务的输入。如,工作流包括任务1、任务2、任务3,当任务1执行完成后,需要将任务1的执行结果作为任务2的输入,在任务2执行完成后,需要将任务2的执行结果作为任务3的输入。其中,第三方实体例如可以为互联网服务提供商(internet service provider,ISP)和互联网内容提供商(internet content provider,ICP)。可以理解,TA功能实体具备服务编排管控功能,即TA功能实体可以将来自网络内部 的任务或工作流中的任务创建任务实例,分配任务的标识信息以及设置任务的QoS参数。
进一步的,TA功能实体可以将任务实例部署到具体的节点上去执行,包括根据任务的QoS参数以及各节点的算力情况进行合理分配,在节点上创建TE功能实体,以及下发任务的配置信息。在任务部署成功后,启动任务并实时监控、调整任务的执行过程,直到任务结束后,删除任务的上下文信息。

在本申请中,TS功能实体可以建立并维护任务的上下文信息,从而对任务进行控制。其中,TS功能实体主要有三大核心特性。
其一,TS功能实体负责任务执行的实时控制,实现通信和计算深度融合。网络环境是动态变化的,如通信连接会发生切换、拉远拉近等各种情况,TS能够感知网络环境变化,进而可以实时调整算力、算法等配置,对算力、连接、数据、算法进行协同优化,保障任务的顺利执行和QoS要求。其中,网络环境变化包括:第二节点进入空闲态;或,第二节点进行小区切换;或,第二节点中执行的任务中断。

工作流包括多个任务的任务流,多个任务可以部署在多个TE功能实体执行,因此TE功能实体间存在数据的交互。TE功能实体间的交互属于任务执行面,是业务逻辑,不需要TA功能实体、TS功能实体干预。即,某个TE功能实体1的数据要传递给另一个TE功能实体2时,可以自行发起,不需要TA功能实体、TS功能实体从任务控制面下发指令来触发。
在一种可能的实施方式中,TA功能实体、TS功能实体和TE功能实体可以为独立的设备, TA功能实体可以接入和移动性管理功能(access and mobility management function,AMF)网元通信,其中,AMF网元主要负责移动性管理、接入管理等服务。在又一种可能的实施方式中,TA功能实体、TS功能实体和TE功能实体也可以分别部署在相应的节点中,即TA功能实体可以部署在第三节点中,如SMF;TS功能实体可以部署在第一节点中;TE功能实体可以部署在第二节点中,在此不做限定。应理解的,第一节点为核心网设备,部署在第一节点的TS功能实体可以管理核心网设备的算力资源和MEC实体的算力资源;第一节点为接入网设备,部署在第一节点的TS功能实体可以管理第一节点的算力资源和第二节点的算力资源。当接入网设备为CU、DU分离的设备,TS功能实体的控制功能可以部署在CU上,TS功能实体的调度功能可以部署在DU上,即TS-control可以部署在CU上,TS-schedule可以部署在DU上。在另一可能的实施方式中,TS功能实体和TE功能实体可以部署在同一节点中,如TS功能实体和TE功能实体可以部署在第一节点中。
