The exponential growth in user numbers has resulted in an overwhelming surge in data that the smart grid must process. To tackle this challenge, edge computing emerges as a vital solution. However, the current heuristic resource scheduling approaches often suffer from resource fragmentation and consequently get stuck in local optimum solutions. This paper introduces a novel network resource allocation method for multi-domain virtual networks with the support of edge computing. The approach entails modeling the edge network as a multi-domain virtual network model and formulating resource constraints specific to the edge computing network. Secondly, a policy network is constructed for reinforcement learning (RL) and an optimal resource allocation strategy is obtained under the premise of ensuring resource requirements. In the experimental section, our algorithm is compared with three other algorithms. The experimental results show that the algorithm has an average increase of 5.30%, 8.85%, 15.47% and 22.67% in long-term average revenue–cost ratio, virtual network request acceptance ratio, long-term average revenue and CPU resource utilization, respectively.
