Integrated Communication and Computing Maritime Networks Design for Green Metaverse

Abstract

With the continuous improvement and development of the metauniverse concept, numerous new technologies have emerged to address the new demands, including big data technology, artificial intelligence technology, immersive interaction technology, and decentralized network ecological technology. However, the large-scale deployment and usage of these technologies have raised concerns about energy consumption and sustainability. This article proposes a green distributed network architecture that combines edge intelligence and the metauniverse. We utilize artificial intelligence to guide edge nodes, improving data processing and transmission efficiency, thereby optimizing energy utilization for Al tasks within the network. Our proposed architecture primarily adopts a model splitting and distributed routing decision framework to achieve this objective. By adopting this architecture, we can effectively meet the developmental requirements of the metauniverse while promoting sustainability through efficient energy utilization. This research holds significant importance for advancing the practical applications of the metauniverse technology and provides valuable insights for academic research and practical implementations in related fields.
