Classification: CPC G  Y | IPC G

Claim 7:
8. A process parasitism-based branch prediction device for serverless computing comprising: a receiving module configured to receive a calling request of a user for a target function; a scheduling module configured to: when capacity expansion is required, schedule a container executing the target function to a new server that has not executed the target function in a preset period of time, wherein a parasitic process is pre-added to a base image of the container; a calling module configured to: trigger the parasitic process when the container is initialized on the new server, wherein the parasitic process is configured to initiate a system call, and trigger a system kernel to select a target template function according to a type of the target function and copy the target template function N times; and a training module configured to use execution data of the copied N target template functions as training data to train a branch predictor on the new server.
