A perspective on responsibleInternetinnovation… • It’s about the eco-system, not just the technology • Technology Business models/markets Policy must CO-EVOLVE • Policy challenge is COORDINATION (not market power) • Decentralized, distributed: lots of good ideas from all levels/directions • Open: entry of new ideas possible • Interoperable: systems are mix-n-match bundles of stuff • (Efficient: economizes on resources) • What is the (eco-system) Control Plane for the Internet? • Smart’s everywhere (automated, unaware, connected) • Mobile, wireless (hence MBWG and SpecWG…)
IoT: control plane for real/virtual convergence? • How to innovate responsibly? • Open (inclusive), Distributed (free choice), Interoperable, (Equitable) • Lots of visions: how to get there from here… • Architectures: where are the control points? • Payments: Bitcoin and virtual currencies • Cloud support: 5G, NFV • Access: fixed/mobile convergence, interconnection
Spectrum Access System (SAS): control plane for shared spectrum management Today: -- static, inflexible, uninformative Tomorrow: -- dynamic, flexible, informative Tiered rights regimes -- Licensed Unlicensed is continuum -- Need better co-existence than exclusion -- lots tech/standards/infrastructure…. WHERE is the battleground? -- e.g., 3.5, 5GHz, LTE-U, Incentive Auctions, etc. … 6
