Summary
Recommendation ITU-T Y.3321 specifies the requirements and capability framework of S-NICE (Software-
defined Network Intelligence Capability Enhancement).
NICE (see Recommendation ITU-T Y.2301) is an enhanced next generation network (NGN) (i.e., an evolved
version of NGN) supporting extended or additional intelligent capabilities for provisioning of services
according to requirements of users and application providers. S-NICE is a specific implementation of NICE,
making use of software-defined networking technologies, and its key objective is the identification of the
NICE implementation requirements when relevant NICE features are supported by software-defined
networking technologies.
Keywords
