A system and a method for operation, maintenance and resource management of mega-constellations based on computing-network integration are provided. The system includes: K MEO satellites and N LEO satellites, each MEO satellite manages multiple LEO satellites in each time slot of each scheduling cycle. Each LEO satellite is configured to acquire data of a computing task within a preset time period and perform data computation based on resource scheduling information for time slot t transmitted by an MEO satellite in each time slot t of each scheduling cycle within the preset time period. Each MEO satellite is configured to generate the resource scheduling information for time slot t based on its own resource task status in the time slot t, transmit the resource scheduling information for time slot t to each of the multiple LEO satellites under its management during the time slot t, and to perform coordinated data computation on computing tasks of the multiple LEO satellites it manages.

A large-scale network node simulation method based on Linux container is provided, which solves problems of low packet transmission efficiency and multi-thread creation in real-time simulation in a large-scale network scenario. The method includes: scheduling all container nodes in a scenario; managing, by a container node, a dynamic thread through an idle thread management queue, and setting a finite state machine and a function pointer for the dynamic thread; registering, by a source container node, an output queue with a next-hop container node, and informing the next-hop container node to allocate a dynamic thread for receiving and processing the output queue. Packet transmission is realized between the container nodes through data units created in a shared memory. The sending thread and the receiving thread dynamically adjust the number of dynamic threads by checking the state of the output queue.

Hierarchical network operation and resource control system and method for a mega satellite constellation, belonging to the field of spatial information technology, are provided. The hierarchical network operation and resource control system includes a service layer, a global organization layer, a local coordination layer and a resource layer. The service layer is used as an input to drive operation of whole system. The global organization layer is to realize 'operation, measurement and control' integrated control and decision of whole network. The local coordination layer is to realize local management decision and management slice generation. The resource layer is to provide physical resource and physical device and realize resource virtualization. By deploying local coordination layer controllers on GSO or MEO satellites, the deployment of local coordination layer controllers is not limited by inability of deploying ground stations globally and therefore the control of large-scale LEO satellite constellation can be achieved.

A method for enhancing network coverage based on adaptive generation of resource cell. A traditional cell in a network is taken as an initial state of the network. A correlation matrix in a current network state is generated. Whether |ω−ω|/ω>ε is determined. Each access point is divided into a plurality of resource cells. A CU-DU network mapping table is generated. A middlehaul link of each of the plurality of resource cells is constructed according to the CU-DU network mapping table.
