​Keynote for Standardization activities on Future Network in JTC 1/SC 6 (Shin-Gak Kang, SC 6/WG 7 Convenor)

This presentation summarizes the current standardization activities on Future Network (FN) and its related works in JTC 1/SC 6. It includes the basic structure and scope of JTC 1/SC 6, history of FN standardization activities, and status of current FN related projects. It also introduces scope of each part of ISO/IEC 29181, Future Network - Problem statement and requirements which are major work items on FN in JTC 1/SC 6. Finally, it introduces next step after completion of development of ISO/IEC 29181-series specification.
Media Transport and Service composition in Future Network (Alberto Gonzalez / UPC, Spain)
 
This presentation will summarize the current work done in the fields of Media Transport (Part 6) and Service composition (Part 7) within the ISO/IEC JTC1 SC6 WG 7 Future Network.
 
Media transport is defined as the reference transport for the Future Network information. Service composition will provide a flexible and scalable framework for composing any kind of service in the Future Network, allowing its adaptation to current and future requirements whilst providing seamless communications.
Future Network: Problem Statement and Requirements (Hyun Kook Kahng / Korea Univ., Korea)
 
​It is about Naming and Addressing, describing the general characteristics, problem statement, gap analysis, and new directions. It refers to current ISO standards, ITU-T recommendations, IETF RFC or internet drafts, and previously published academic papers.

This presentation introduces the current work of Technical Report ISO/IEC 29182-2, especially presents new addressing scheme using geographical information like longitude, latitude, and altitude. It shows some examples how this new scheme can ease the problems of scalability or mobility. Especially it shows the possible extension from current 2D flat routing to 3D routing.
Switching and Routing in Future Network (John Grant / Nine Tiles, UK)
 
Tomorrow's networks will carry two kinds of data: static (files, web pages, etc; IT-centric) and dynamic (live streams, often with timeliness requirements; AV-centric). IP has a number of deficiencies, particularly for dynamic data, which are identified in TR29181-1; many of these are a consequence of the way IP packets are routed, with all information being carried in the packet header rather than on the separate “signalling” channel used by previous telecommunications technologies. This presentation gives an overview of the requirements for switching and routing identified in TR29181-3 and the likely migration route from current technology.
​Future Network: Mobility (T. W. You / ETRI, Korea)
 
In this talk, we will take care of two topics. The first one is the overview of the FN mobility-related standardization document, ISO/IEC 29181-4. And the other is the status report on the R&D project on FN mobility in KOREA, named MOFI (Mobile Oriented Future Internet). The WD of ISO/IEC 29181-4 is output document that was produced in the 2012 May WG7 Jeju meeting. This text is scheduled for the PDTR ballot processing. And the MOFI propose novel Future Internet architecture on considering mobile dominance environments.
Network Virtualization and Service Awareness Properties of FNs in ITU-T Q.21/SG13 (Myung-ki Shin, ETRI)
 
Q.21/13 of ITU-T is developing relevant recommendations on network virtualization and service awareness properties of future networks as one of important objectives of future networks, that enables network operators to control their networks in unified, programmable manner, and as a result of that realizes multiple isolated and flexible networks in order to support a broad range of network architectures, services, and users that do not interfere with others. In this talk, Y.3011 - framework of network virtualization, which has been published recently, will be introduced and summarized. Also, as one of current work items, Y.FNsdn - framework of software-defined networking (SDN) will be discussed with next steps of this research area.
Identifiers, identification schemes and data awareness (Ved Kafle, NICT)
 
​I will present an overview of identifiers and identification scheme being considered in Future Network related standardization activities of ITU-T Study Group 13. The presentation would include contents from ITU-T Y.3001, Y.3031, Y.FNid-config, Y.FNDAN, and other related drafts.
Environmental awareness Environmental Awareness – Recommendation ITU-T Y.3021 (Toshihiko Kurita, Fujitsu)
 
​In this presentation, environmental awareness, one of key objectives in Future Networks, is explained. Then, as a concrete standardization activity in ITU-T SG13 related to it, Recommendation ITU-T Y.3021, of the title "Framework of energy saving for Future Networks", is introduced. First, the need for energy saving of networks themselves is described, and potential technologies are reviewed. Then, major functions and their cyclic interactions are identified, possible impacts of introducing the technologies are analyzed, and the high-level requirements for introducing the technologies are itemised. Finally, possible next steps are described.
