(continuation of Q.12/4)
Motivation
While Study Group 2 is the lead study group for Telecommunication Management,
some aspects of telecommunications management and OAM are being developed in
other Study Groups. Telecommunication management and OAM activities include the
management of telecommunication services, networks, and equipment, by means of
generic and technology-specific principles, frameworks, (methodology),
architectures, functional requirements, information models, and protocols for
the specification of management and OAM interfaces between network elements,
between network elements and management systems, and also between management
systems.
A coordination and communication activity among the involved Study Groups and
Questions is fundamental in order to facilitate the most efficient completion of
the work. This activity includes the identification of development directions,
missing work areas and those that are overlapping, or potentially so, between
multiple Study Groups, Questions and Recommendations. It also includes
encouraging the relevant work items in the most appropriate Questions, helping
to define a suitable time schedule, and monitoring its development in a
consistent way. This should allow a proper integration of the project
information coming from telecommunications management and OAM projects, and
eventually should ensure the mutual consistency of the standards prepared by the
various ITU bodies, on this subject.
Question
Study items to be considered include, but are not limited to:
- What aspects of telecommunication management and OAM are under
development or need to be assigned to what Study Groups or Questions for
timely development?
Tasks
Tasks include, but are not limited to:
- Develop, maintain, and regularly distribute a project overview/work plan
that documents the work and time schedules of all major new
telecommunications management and OAM activities;
- Identification of development directions, missing work areas and those
that are overlapping, or potentially so, between multiple Study Groups,
Questions and Recommendations;
- Facilitate the relevant work items in the most appropriate ITU Questions
and monitoring their development in a consistent way;
- Manage the responsibility associated with the Lead SG on
Telecommunication Management;
- To fulfil the above tasks, cooperate as necessary with the JCA on
Management.
