  1. Global Standards Collaboration (GSC) 14 Global Collaboration on Future Network Standardization Hyoung-Jun KIM, Chair of PG210, TTA

  2. Background (1/2) • The Future Network (FN), which is anticipated to provide futuristic functionalities beyond the limitation of the current network including Internet, is getting a global attention in the field of communication network and services. • To support the requirements of future emerging applications and users, telecommunications technologies beyond current IP oriented technologies will need to be developed. • To support the development of global and harmonized frameworks (e.g. requirements, functional architectures and protocols)

  3. Background (2/2) • Future Networks have become a part of global agenda. • IRTF (International), GENI/FIND (US), FP7/FIRE (EU), AKARI/NwGN (Japan), FIF(Korea), etc. • ITU-T (Q21/SG13 and FG-FN), ISO/IEC JTC1/SC6 • The academic community expressed their strong interest in collaborating with the ITU-T on this subject during the last ITU-T Kaleidoscope event in May 2008 • However, all these activities seems to be in their early stage of investigation. • Global harmonization between these different activities is needed to gather the global consensus on it

  4. Current Activities (1/7) • ITU-T Q.21/SG13 • The title of SG13 in the new study period (2009-2012) is “Future Networks including Mobile and NGN” reflecting the importance of “Future Networks”. • A new Question on Future Networks has been approved as Q21/13 and has started the works. • Future Network : Vision, Concepts, and Requirements • Requirements of Network Virtualization

  5. Current Activities (2/7) • Study items (or deliverables) of Q.21/13 to be considered include, but are not limited to: • Problem statement on current IP-based network architecture • Design goals and general requirements for the FN   • Gap analysis between existing standards and FN • Meta architecture (network virtualization, cross-layer communications) and architectural framework for the FN • Incorporating new communication and service technologies into FN  • Identifying functions and capabilities to support new services for the FN

  6. Current Activities (3/7) • ITU-T FG-FN • SG13 has established “Focus Group on Future Networks (FG-FN)” to share the discussion on Future Networks and ensure global common understanding about Future Networks with collaboration and harmonization with relevant entities and activities. • Supported by the Focus Group, SG13 can establish the clear roadmap of studies for Future Networks and good collaboration with relevant organizations/projects which are imperative to standardization activities for the Future Networks.

  7. Current Activities (4/7) • The Focus Group, by collaborating with worldwide FN communities (e.g., research institutes, forums, academia and etc), aims to • collect and identify visions of future networks, based on new technologies • assess the interactions between future networks and new services, • familiarize ITU-T and standardization communities with emerging attributes of future networks, and • encourage collaboration between ITU-T and FN communities.

  8. Current Activities (5/7) • 1st Meeting of FG-FN • Luleå, Sweden, June 29-July 3 (co-located with FP7/FIRE week event) • Chairman : Naotaka Morita (NTT, Japan) • Vice-chairman : Hyoung Jun Kim (ETRI, Korea) • Further volunteers for vice chairman are expected • Outcome at the first meeting • More than 20 contributions • FP7/FIRE projects in Europe are introduced. • China, Korea, and Japan project are also discussed. • FIRE and ITU-T Joint Meeting • Target time frame of FN (2015-2020) was clarified. • The two draft deliverables are agreed to develop.

  9. Current Activities (6/7) • ISO/IEC JTC1 • SC6/WG7 has launched similar standardization activities on Future Network. • Future Network : Problem Statement and Requirements

  10. Current Activities (7/7) • Korean Activities on FN issues • Actively involved in standardization activities • ITU-T Q.21/13, FG-FN, ISO/IEC JTC1/SC6 • Domestic Future Internet Forum (FIF) was launched in 2006 • A lot of members from universities, institutes, and industries • PG 220(Future Internet) of TTA has recently launched with its ToR. • ETRI has started the work on development of virtualized programmable platform for FN research and experimentation

  11. Challenges • Taking into consideration the importance of global connectivity and interoperability on FN, global harmonization efforts on its standardization between relevant SDOs are quite important and necessary to build up globally interoperable future ICT infrastructures

  12. Next Steps/Actions • Global collaboration on FN isrequired; • To make good collaboration with relevant organizations/projects • To collect and identify visions of future networks from the relevant organizations/projects • To establish the roadmap of standardization for Future Networks • So, if we agree with the collaboration on FN inside of the GSC, TTA would like to propose this topic to be added in HIS at the next GSC
