Abstract: Example communication methods and apparatus are described. One example method includes sending a first request message by a terminal device to a first device, where the first request message includes a second identifier identifying that access of the terminal device to a target server is continuous access. The first device sends the first request message to a second device based on the second identifier and a third mapping relationship indicating a correspondence between the second identifier and the second device. The second device sends the first request message to the target server based on the second identifier and a second mapping relationship indicating a correspondence between the second identifier and the target server.

Abstract: Embodiments of this application provide a communication method and apparatus. The method includes: A session management function network element determines a first user plane function network element based on first information of a service, association information between the first user plane function network element and a second user plane function network element supporting the service, and information of services provided by the second user plane function network element, and sends second information of the service and a first identifier to the first user plane function network element to indicate to send a packet of the service through a first flow that meeting a requirement of the service. This ensures that a packet forwarding path meets a requirement of a service of a terminal device, improves packet forwarding flexibility and efficiency, and implements dynamic scheduling based on a service capability of a network element and a network status.

Abstract: Embodiments of this application provide a method for determining an application server and an apparatus. The method includes: A first network element obtains a characteristic parameter of a candidate application server. The first network element obtains a network status of a serving link, where the serving link is a link from a terminal to a DN in which the candidate application server is located. The first network element determines a target application server from the candidate application server based on the characteristic parameter of the candidate application server and the network status of the serving link. Therefore, compared with an existing method, in the method in this application, resources in a network can be better used, and the selected target application server can better execute a service of the terminal device, to improve user experience.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to the field of computer technology, in particular to an information processing method and apparatus, an electronic device and a storage medium. An information processing method provided by the disclosure includes: determining an association relation between a receiver receiving first information and a source of the first information, wherein the first information is generated based on first original information within the source; determining information of the source to be displayed to the receiver based on the association relation, wherein the information of the source includes first source information if the association relation is a first association relation, and the information of source includes second source information if the association relation is a second association relation.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to the field of computer technology, in particular to an information processing method and apparatus, an electronic device and a storage medium. An information processing method provided by the disclosure includes: displaying an instant messaging session interface configured to display one or more instant messaging information; determining task information based on user input in response to a task creation triggering operation; determining a target session interface associated with the task creation triggering operation; and displaying a task interface in a predetermined form in the target session interface, wherein the task interface is obtained based on the task information and a predetermined information structure.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides an information processing method and apparatus, a terminal, and a storage medium. The information processing method comprises: receiving first task information at an instant messaging client, and displaying the first task information in a first category interface of a task interface of the instant messaging client; and in response to a preset operation of the first task information, displaying second task information in a second category interface of the task interface of the instant messaging client, wherein executors of the first task information and the second task information are different. The present disclosure classifies tasks more accurately and facilitates the tracking and management of the tasks.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to the technical field of computers, in particular to an information processing method and apparatus, an electronic device, and a storage medium. The information processing method provided by the disclosure includes: displaying a messaging interface, the messaging interface being configured to display a chat message; determining at least one chat message in the messaging interface; and in response to a task creation instruction, generating task information based on the determined message. According to the information processing method provided by the disclosure, by determining the chat message in the messaging interface and generating the task information based on the determined chat message, it can be facilitated for a user to create a task based on the chat message in the messaging interface, thereby improving the creation efficiency of the task information.

Abstract: There is provided an information processing method, apparatus, electronic device, and storage medium for information processing. The information processing method includes: receiving first task information; and displaying second task information in a task interface after a first preset control in the first task information is triggered, where participants of the first task information and the second task information are different, and display regions for the participants are different from display regions for executors or creators of corresponding task information. By enabling a user to follow or participate in the first task information in response to an operation on the first preset control in the first task information, and displaying the second task information including following or participation information in the task interface, corresponding users can be informed about the progress of corresponding tasks in time and can receive notifications of the progress of the corresponding tasks in time.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses and methods may provide for technology that sends a first message via an input output (IO) link, wherein the first message includes a first rendering asset and an identifier (ID) associated with the first rendering asset. The technology may also exclude a second rendering asset from a second message in response to the ID being shared by the first rendering asset and the second rendering asset and send the second message via the IO link, wherein the second message includes the ID. In one example, the ID is a hash ID.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a virtualized network function (VNF) failover method and apparatus, so as to resolve a problem that an affinity policy cannot be compatible with a high availability (HA) mechanism in a network functions virtualization (NFV) scenario. The method is: receiving, by a management and orchestration (MANO} system, a fault message, where the fault message indicates a first VNF is faulty; determining, by the MANO system, a primary affinity group to which the first VNF belongs and a secondary affinity group corresponding to the primary affinity group, where VNFs in the secondary affinity group are in a one-to-one correspondence with VNFs in the primary affinity group, and the affinity group represents a set of VNFs on which an affinity policy is used; and instructing, by the MANO system, the VNFs in the secondary affinity group to continue to process services of the VNFs in the primary affinity group.
