3.3 simple intent
A single, clearly defined operational need expressed by a user to the system that does not rely on context.
3.4 complex intent
An operational need expressed by a user to the system that contains multiple subgoals, requires task decomposition, and relies on context.
3.5 workflow
A sequence of tasks arranged to achieve a specific goal.

5 Key Capabilities
5.1 General
Based on the intelligence level of a microcomputer in performing various tasks within its functional scope and the degree of user participation during task execution, the intelligence level of a microcomputer is classified into Level 1 (L1) to Level 3 (L3). The higher the level, the higher its intelligence level. Higherlevel capabilities encompass all lowerlevel capabilities. For example, an L3level microcomputer shall encompass all the key capabilities of both L1 and L2 levels.
The key capability elements in this document refer to GB/Z 177.1 and GB/Z 177.2.
The intelligence level of a microcomputer consists of two parts: endside capabilities and devicecloud collaboration capabilities.
a) Endside capabilities refer to the service capabilities of a microcomputer to complete certain perception, cognition, execution, memory and learning tasks locally, relying on its own local resources such as computing, storage and sensors.
b) Devicecloud collaboration capabilities refer to the ability of a microcomputer, based on its endside capabilities, to combine with edgeside or cloudside computing resources, through coordinated scheduling and information exchange, to complete composite tasks requiring strong cognition and complex decisionmaking.
5.2 Endside capabilities
5.2.1 L1 Response Level
5.2.1.1 Perception
5.2.1.1.1 User information perception
User information perception capabilities shall meet the following requirements:
a) Text perception: the ability to accurately input text content via external peripherals such as a keyboard.
b) Audio perception: the ability to input audio information via external peripherals such as a microphone, or via audio files provided by the user.
c) Image perception: the ability to take photos via external peripherals such as a camera, or to input image information via image files provided by the user.
d) Video perception: the ability to record videos via external peripherals such as a camera, or to input video information via video files provided by the user.
5.2.1.1.2 Device information perception
Device information perception capabilities shall meet the following requirements:
a) Hardware perception: the ability to perceive the local hardware information and working status, including the processor, memory, hard disk, graphics card or battery, etc.
b) Software perception: the ability to perceive the local software information and working status, including the list of installed software, operating status, operating system information, driver status, permission configurations or network connection status, etc.
5.2.1.1.3 Environmental information perception
No requirements.
5.2.1.2 Cognition
5.2.1.2.1 Understanding
Direct instructions: the ability to understand simple user instructions, such as “open the browser”.
5.2.1.2.2 Reasoning
No requirements.
5.2.1.2.3 Planning
No requirements.
5.2.1.3 Execution
5.2.1.3.1 Tool invocation
Invoking deterministic tools to complete singlestep task execution: the ability to invoke firstparty or thirdparty applications or services and complete singlestep tasks.
5.2.1.3.2 Content generation
No requirements.
5.2.1.3.3 Interconnection and collaboration
Crossdevice control: the ability to control external devices, such as peripheral control, document printing or smart home control functions.
5.2.1.3.4 Expression output
Expression output: the ability to provide feedback to the user on task execution status and results through specific output methods.
5.2.1.4 Memory capabilities
5.2.1.4.1 Shortterm memory
No requirements.
5.2.1.4.2 Longterm memory
No requirements.
