MIIT: Launching Metropolitan “Millisecond-Level Computing” Special Initiative to Provide Millisecond-Level Computing Resource Network Access Capabilities Within Metropolitan AreasThe General Office of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) has organized the launch of the Metropolitan “Millisecond-Level Computing” Special Initiative. The initiative mentions that it will focus on the development of computing power networks, build a metropolitan area network with high speed, large capacity, deterministic low latency, and ubiquitous coverage – specifically, realizing millisecond-level interconnection of computing power centers (<1 millisecond) for infrastructure, millisecond-level access to computing power resources (<1 millisecond) for key locations, and millisecond-level reach of computing power applications (network latency <10 milliseconds) for application terminals. Driven by this special initiative, all stakeholders in the industry will be guided to focus on unblocking millisecond-level computing channels, and the construction of millisecond-level computing networks will be promoted in a phased manner nationwide. By 2027, a comprehensive and efficient metropolitan millisecond-level computing network capability system with nationwide coverage will be basically formed.
