  12. Life Cycle Slide 12 Adrian Stephens, Intel : Stephen McCann, Blackberry

  13. IEEE 802 standards development life cycle part 1 Call for Interest (CFI) NesCom & Standards Board review Standards Board approval Adequate interest? Study Group investigates forming a project produce PAR and CSD (5 Criteria) Start work in Working Group Working Group and EC review If EC approves, forward PAR to NesCom Adrian Stephens, Intel : Stephen McCann, Blackberry

  14. IEEE 802 criteria for standards development (CSD) • Project Process • Managed objects • Coexistence (for a wireless project) • Five Criteria • Broad Market Potential • Compatibility • Distinct Identity • Technical Feasibility • Economic Feasibility

  15. IEEE 802 standards development life cycle part 2 Changes or new disapproves Review proposals Review ballot comments, modify draft as needed Material selected? Recirculate changesand disapprovecomments Create and refine draft Draft complete? No changes and no newdisapproves, ≥75% approve andWorking Group approves forwarding to sponsor ballot? Working Group ballot Adrian Stephens, Intel : Stephen McCann, Blackberry

  16. IEEE 802 standards development life cycle part 3 Request EC approve forward to sponsor ballot Request EC approve forward to RevCom EC approval? RevCom approval Sponsor ballot Standards Board approval Changes or new disapproves Review ballot comments, modify draft as needed Prepare for publication No changes and no new disapproves, ≥75% approve Published standard Adrian Stephens, Intel : Stephen McCann, Blackberry

  17. Standards life cycle – part 4 And then there is maintaining the standard • Keep the standard current by producing amendments and corrigenda (corrections) • Renew the life of the standard with revision • When the standard is out of date, withdraw it.

  18. Policy Slide 18 Adrian Stephens, Intel : Stephen McCann, Blackberry

  19. Guiding Principles of the Standards Process Due Process Develop, publish and follow procedures Openness All materially interested parties have access to the process and information Consensus Goal is agreement among the majority. For technical matters this means 75% Balance Representation from members of all materially interested parties Adrian Stephens, Intel : Stephen McCann, Blackberry

  20. Policies and Procedures - Intro • The operation of the 802.11 working group (WG11) is governed by a number of documents (next slide). • Matters of procedure in 802.11 (where not described by one of the higher documents in the hierarchy) are decided by the WG11 chair.  These WG11 procedures are described in the WG11 operations manual. • If you are new to standards development or new to WG11, do not despair!   Day to day rules can be learned by observing and participating in the WG.   If you are unsure about the operation of some procedure in WG11,  speak to one of the WG officers or the officers of its subgroups.  Slide 20 Adrian Stephens, Intel : Stephen McCann, Blackberry

  35. Recording Attendance • It is a requirement that attendees register, in order that a correct record of attendees and their disclosed affiliations can be recorded in the minutes. • You must record 75% attendance of eligible 802.11 slots in a session for that session to count towards gaining or maintaining 802.11 voting membership • You need a single IEEE-SA web account • The IEEE-SA web account requires a working email address • do not remove your email address from the account • Use the email address associated with that web account when registering attendance • If you change email addresses, update the web account, don’t create a new web account, or your membership status may not be calculated properly Slide 35 Adrian Stephens, Intel : Stephen McCann, Blackberry

  36. Attendance Procedures Prior to or during the session: • (one time) Get a free Web Account if you don’t already have one. Keep your contact data in this area up to date. • (one time) Register your Interest Areas in myProject if you haven’t done so already (it’s up to you to keep this updated as needed) During the session: • (once per session) Register on IMAT • (once per slot) Record attendance at a specific meeting. You will be asked for your affiliation the first time you attend a new task group. • See following slides for detailed procedure Slide 36 Adrian Stephens, Intel : Stephen McCann, Blackberry

  37. Changing Affiliation • The IMAT attendance system keeps a record of stated affiliation per group (task group / working group). • The 802.11 membership records are updated using this information after every session. • If you change affiliation, you need to go to “MyProject” under “Manage Activities” and check/update all 802.11 groups that you have attended in the past or declared an interest in so that they have the correct affiliation. • Notifying the 802.11 officers of a change is not sufficient, as any local changes to the 802.11 membership records will get overwritten with data from MyProject after every session.
