A game platform manages platform nodes for performing game operations on behalf of a game program, such as physical operations, artificial intelligence operations, and player messaging operations. Relatively exquisite and complex game operations can be achieved by the game program via the game platform. The gaming platform may implement each gaming operation at a corresponding platform node, where the platform node employs associated hardware to perform the gaming operation. The game platform can distribute platform nodes at different hardware resource sets, such as different servers, different hardware accelerators and the like, thereby implementing more delicate game operations than a game program can be directly implemented. The gaming platform transfers data between the gaming program and the platform node using zero-copy transfer techniques, thereby transferring data with relatively small latency. 游戏平台代表游戏程序管理用于执行游戏操作的平台节点，该操作诸如是物理操作、人工智能操作和玩家消息传递操作。经由游戏平台，游戏程序可以实现相对精巧且复杂的游戏操作。游戏平台可以在对应的平台节点处实现每个游戏操作，其中，
