CONTROLLER, CONTROL CIRCUIT, AND RESOURCE ALLOCATION METHOD

A controller includes a physical network information acquisition unit obtaining information about resource of a device and information about connection between devices in a wireless access network, a physical path calculation unit calculating physical path resource information based on the information about resource of the device and the information about connection between the devices, an abstract path resource calculation unit calculating abstract path resource information based on the physical path resource information, an abstract path correlation calculation unit generating correlation information between abstract paths, a resource pool storing the abstract path resource information and the correlation information, a temporary resource pool temporarily storing the abstract path resource information and the correlation information, an abstract resource allocation unit determining whether a slice meeting a requirement of a slice request can be generated, and a temporary resource calculation unit updating information in the temporary resource pool.
