Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A network node includes: a reception unit configured to receive a request for discovering a computing resource that is configured for a subscriber from another computing resource that is configured for the subscriber or from another network node; and a transmission unit configured to transmit information indicating properties of the computing resource to the another computing resource or to the another network node.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A network node comprising: a reception unit configured to receive a request for discovering a computing resource that is configured for a subscriber from another computing resource that is configured for the subscriber or from another network node; and a transmission unit configured to transmit information indicating properties of the computing resource to the another computing resource or to the another network node. 2 . The network node as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the information indicating properties of the computing resource includes information indicating an address of a communication destination of the computing resource. 3 . The network node as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the reception unit receives a request for registering the information indicating properties of the computing resource, and the network node further comprising: a control unit configured to perform control of storing the information indicating properties of the computing resource. 4 . A communication method performed by a network node, the communication method comprising: receiving a request for discovering a computing resource that is configured for a subscriber from another computing resource that is configured for the subscriber or from another network node; and transmitting information indicating properties of the computing resource to the another computing resource or to the another network node. 5 . The network node as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the reception unit receives a request for registering the information indicating properties of the computing resource, and the network node further comprising: a control unit configured to perform control of storing the information indicating properties of the computing resource.
