Work programme, coordination and planning

(Continuation of Question 10/9)

Motivation

A home is needed to handle contributions and liaison statements when they are not directly related to Questions already under study. This Question is also intended to provide cross-ITU coordination for the many aspects for which Study Group 9 is responsible and to foster consistency among ITU‑T, ITU‑R and ITU-D study groups as well as with other related bodies. Additionally, this Question provides a focal point for Study Group 9 matters such as terminology, co-existence of wired and wireless telecommunications, ICT and climate change, conformance and interoperability testing, standardization roadmaps etc.

Question

Study items to be considered include, but are not limited to:

• When considering new topics for Study Group 9, which actions are needed to address contributions not related to existing Study Group 9 Questions?
• What are the new or updated Questions that need to be worked on in Study Group 9?
• What are the results of workshops, TSB initiatives, and actions of other SGs or SDOs that need to be considered under Study Group 9 work programme?
• What kind of promotional materials (including workshops) can be prepared to assist in the dissemination of Study Group 9 work?
• What kind of materials (reference implementations, tutorial etc.) could be made available on the study group website?
• What guides would be needed to help the users to implement the new Recommendations?
• What terms and definitions should be collected and made available to the Study Group 9 Rapporteurs for vocabulary?
• What coordination needs to take place in Study Group 9 based upon activities of various joint coordination activities (JCAs)?

Tasks

Tasks include, but are not limited to:

• Identify the needs of the rapidly changing telecommunication marketplace best addressed by the work programme of Study Group 9, and propose new Questions or updates to existing Questions;
• Nominate, in collaboration with other study groups or standardization bodies, representatives in the steering committees of workshops;
• Ensure coordination among various standards activities mandated to Study Group 9 and collaboration with other standards bodies;
• Serve as a focal point in Study Group 9 for conformance and interoperability testing based on WTSA Resolution 76;
• Serve as a focal point in Study Group 9 for terms and definitions, and maintaining related Recommendations;
  
• Maintain Recommendations that are not under the responsibility of other existing Study Group 9 Questions.
