The units described as separate components may or may not be physically separated, and the components shown as units may or may not be physical units, that is, they may be located in one place, or they may be distributed to multiple network units. Some or all of the units may be selected according to actual needs to implement this embodiment. In addition, each functional unit in the embodiment of the present disclosure may be integrated into one processing unit, or each unit may exist physically alone, or two or more units may be integrated into one unit.

The flowcharts and block diagrams in the Figures illustrate the architecture, functionality, and operation of possible implementations of systems, methods, and computer program products according to embodiments of the present disclosure. In this regard, each block in the flowchart or block diagrams may represent a module, segment, or portion of code that contains one or more components for implementing the specified logical function(s). Executable instructions. In some alternative implementations, the functions noted in the block may occur out of the order noted in the figures. For example, two consecutive blocks may actually execute substantially in parallel, or they may sometimes execute in the reverse order, depending on the functionality involved. In the descriptions corresponding to the flowcharts and block diagrams in the accompanying drawings, operations or steps corresponding to different blocks may also occur in a sequence different from that disclosed in the description, and sometimes there is no specific distinction between different operations or steps. order. For example, two consecutive operations or steps may actually be performed substantially in parallel, or they may sometimes be performed in reverse order, depending on the functionality involved. Each block in the block diagram and/or flowchart illustration, and combinations of blocks in the block diagram and/or flowchart illustration, may be implemented by special purpose hardware-based systems that perform the specified functions or actions, or may be implemented using special purpose hardware implemented in combination with computer instructions.
