>> Study Group 12 : Performance and quality of service
Question 1/12 - Work programme. Definitions, Handbooks, Guides and Tutorials
(Continuation of Question 1/12)

Motivation

The Study Group has the ability to approve new or revised Questions, which enables continuous change of its programme of work. Accordingly, a home is needed for new work proposals when they are not directly related to Questions already under study. Similarly, Question 1/12 can accommodate new contributions which have no associated Question, as well as necessary actions that should be taken on existing Recommendations with no associated Question or Rapporteur. This role will be played in part 1 "Work Programme" of this question.
This question covers also the Recommendations for definitions (that need to be currently updated to take into account the new concepts, technologies) to give precise definitions of the new concepts developed in the other Study Group Questions. 
More and more, new actors in the fields of telecommunications need to understand the concepts and the Recommandations on QoS, Telephonometry, Transmission quality, etc. To help the members and inform on the work done in the Study Group, it appears necessary to create tutorials, reference implementations, FAQ, etc., that should be given on the SG Web site. This activity should be completed by updating the handbooks and creating guides. This role will be played in part 2 "Definitions, Handbooks, Guides, Tutorials" of this question.

The following major Recommendations/Supplements/Handbooks, in force at the time of approval of this Question, fall under its responsibility: 

Recommendations P.10, G.100, P.800.1, Handbook on Telephonometry, Handbook on transmission Planning.

Question

This Question is complementary to the other Questions of SG 12.

Part 1: Work programme

When considering new topics for the SG, before beginning any action, the contributions are addressed and discussed under this Question.
What are the new or updated questions that need to be worked on in the SG?
What are the results of Workshops, TSB initiatives, actions of other SGs or SDOs that need to be considered under the Study Group work Programme?

Part 2: Definitions, Handbooks, Guides, Tutorials

What are the new or revised definitions that need to be included in Recommendations P.10 and G.100?
What are the new sections to be written to update the handbooks? How could we ensure greater visibility and better use of these materials?
What kind of materials (FAQ, reference implementations, tutorial etc.) could be available on the SG Web site?
What guides would be needed to help the users to implement the new Recommendations?

Tasks

Tasks include, but are not limited to:

For Part 1:

- to identify the needs of the rapidly changing telecommunications marketplace best addressed by the programme of work of Study Group 12, and to create in study Group 12 new Questions or to update Questions.

- to work, in collaboration with other SGs or standardization bodies to the steering committee of workshops.
For Part 2:

- to drive actions to update existing Recommendations, or to create new Recommendations on definitions.

- to update or produce handbooks, Guides, tutorials for the benefit of the users of the Recommendations.

- to create tools that could help non-experts to understand and implement the new Recommendations. Some of these tools should be implemented on the SG Web site.
