Its well-structured design ensures high scalability and facilitates the seamless integration of additional features and techniques in the future. In addition, the ``learnware`` package serves as the engine for the `Beimingwu System `_ and can be effectively employed for conducting experiments related to learnware. +| [1] Zhi-Hua Zhou.
