Global Collaboration on Future
Network Standardization
Hyoung-Jun KIM,
Chair of PG210, TTA
Geneva, 13-16 July 2009
Fostering worldwide interoperability
Background (1/2)
The Future Network (FN), which is anticipated
to provide futuristic functionalities beyond the
limitation of the current network including
Internet, is getting a global attention in the
field of communication network and services.
To support the requirements of future
emerging applications and users,
telecommunications technologies beyond
current IP oriented technologies will need to
be developed.
To support the development of global and
harmonized frameworks (e.g. requirements,
functional architectures and protocols)

Background (2/2)
Future Networks have become a part of global
agenda.
IRTF (International), GENI/FIND (US), FP7/FIRE
(EU), AKARI/NwGN (Japan), FIF(Korea), etc.
ITU-T (Q21/SG13 and FG-FN), ISO/IEC
JTC1/SC6
The academic community expressed their strong
interest in collaborating with the ITU-T on this
subject during the last ITU-T Kaleidoscope event
in May 2008
However, all these activities seems to be in
their early stage of investigation.
Global harmonization between these different
activities is needed to gather the global
consensus on it

Current Activities (1/7)
ITU-T Q.21/SG13
The title of SG13 in the new study period
(2009-2012) is “Future Networks including
Mobile and NGN” reflecting the importance of
“Future Networks”.
A new Question on Future Networks has been
approved as Q21/13 and has started the works.
Future Network : Vision, Concepts, and
Requirements
Requirements of Network Virtualization

Current Activities (2/7)
Study items (or deliverables) of Q.21/13 to be
considered include, but are not limited to:
Problem statement on current IP-based network
architecture
Design goals and general requirements for the
FN
Gap analysis between existing standards and FN
Meta architecture (network virtualization, crosslayer communications) and architectural
framework for the FN
Incorporating new communication and service
technologies into FN
Identifying functions and capabilities to support
new services for the FN

Current Activities (3/7)
ITU-T FG-FN
SG13 has established “Focus Group on Future
Networks (FG-FN)” to share the discussion on
Future Networks and ensure global common
understanding about Future Networks with
collaboration and harmonization with relevant
entities and activities.
Supported by the Focus Group, SG13 can
establish the clear roadmap of studies for
Future Networks and good collaboration with
relevant organizations/projects which are
imperative to standardization activities for the
Future Networks.

Current Activities (4/7)
The Focus Group, by collaborating with
worldwide FN communities (e.g., research
institutes, forums, academia and etc), aims to
collect and identify visions of future networks,
based on new technologies
assess the interactions between future
networks and new services,
familiarize ITU-T and standardization
communities with emerging attributes of future
networks, and
encourage collaboration between ITU-T and FN
communities.

Current Activities (5/7)
1st Meeting of FG-FN
Luleå, Sweden, June 29-July 3 (co-located with
FP7/FIRE week event)
Chairman : Naotaka Morita (NTT, Japan)
Vice-chairman : Hyoung Jun Kim (ETRI, Korea)
Further volunteers for vice chairman are expected
Outcome at the first meeting
More than 20 contributions
FP7/FIRE projects in Europe are introduced.
China, Korea, and Japan project are also discussed.
FIRE and ITU-T Joint Meeting
Target time frame of FN (2015-2020) was clarified.
The two draft deliverables are agreed to develop.

Current Activities (6/7)
ISO/IEC JTC1
SC6/WG7 has launched similar standardization
activities on Future Network.
Future Network : Problem Statement and
Requirements

Current Activities (7/7)
Korean Activities on FN issues
Actively involved in standardization activities
ITU-T Q.21/13, FG-FN, ISO/IEC JTC1/SC6
Domestic Future Internet Forum (FIF) was
launched in 2006
A lot of members from universities, institutes, and
industries
PG 220(Future Internet) of TTA has recently
launched with its ToR.
ETRI has started the work on development of
virtualized programmable platform for FN
research and experimentation

Challenges
Taking into consideration the importance of
global connectivity and interoperability on FN,
global harmonization efforts on its
standardization between relevant SDOs are quite
important and necessary to build up globally
interoperable future ICT infrastructures

11
Next Steps/Actions
Global collaboration on FN is required;
To make good collaboration with relevant
organizations/projects
To collect and identify visions of future networks
from the relevant organizations/projects
To establish the roadmap of standardization for
Future Networks
So, if we agree with the collaboration on FN inside
of the GSC, TTA would like to propose this topic to
be added in HIS at the next GSC
