Brian Moore
Lucent Technologies
(Study Group 13 Chairman)

3. Study Group 13 mandate Multi-protocol and IP-based networks and their
internetworking
Responsible for studies relating to internetworking of
heterogeneous networks encompassing multiple domains, multiple protocols and innovative technologies with a goal to deliver high-quality, reliable networking. Specific aspects are architecture, interworking and adaptation, end-to-end considerations, routing and requirements for transport.

4. Mission
To provide a focal point in ITU for technology-independent network architecture and long-term evolution studies, including IP-network studies, through development of the necessary frameworks and architectures, coordination with the various related studies in the other ITU Study Groups and collaboration with other standards bodies.

5. Mission (cont)
To help ITU-T continue to respond to the changes to studies and priorities necessary to integrate traditional telecommunication networks with IP-based networks in order to provide full integration of services and applications to end users. Also, to give network providers the tools and information to support the market-driven changes to the telecommunication industry.

6. Mission (cont)
To conduct IP-related studies focusing on network architecture, network capabilities, network evolution, service and performance aspects, and access arrangements to achieve interoperability in the multi-vendor and multi-network-operator environments.

7. Particular areas of study key to this evolution are IP-based network architectures, IP-based network performance, IP transfer capabilities, IP-VPN (virtual private network) services, IP-based network resource management and access arrangements.

8. Mission (cont)
To conduct the remaining studies in the area of B-ISDN resource management, performance and the ATM Layer and its adaptation and interworking.
To encourage harmonisation of IP-related and GII studies across the ITU-T study groups through the evolution and further development of the ITU-T IP and GII projects.

9. Mission (cont)
To collaborate with other standardisation bodies in identifying gaps in the standardisation programmes concerning IP networking and to develop proposals and Recommendations to advance the necessary work.

24. Next Generation Networks
In February 2002, Study Group 13 decided to start the preparation of an ITU-T Project on Next Generation Networks (the NGN 2004 Project)
It is currently in its preparation phase and is planned to be launched at the November 2002 Study Group 13 meeting
The goal of the NGN 2004 Project is to organise and coordinate studies on NGN in ITU-T
1/17/2019

25. Next Generation Networks (cont)
The view of Study Group 13 is that NGN should be seen as a concrete realisation of Global Information Infrastructure concepts
The GII Project has met its goal in providing standards for:
GII general principles and framework architecture
Scenario methodology
1/17/2019

26. Next Generation Networks (cont)
Information communication architecture
Reference points for interconnection
However implementation issues were not in the scope of the GII
There is a need to complete the standardisation process in providing implementers with guidelines
1/17/2019

27. Future Plans
Study Groups will continue to build links with the IETF with the objective to:
avoid duplication of work and divergent standards
collaborate where appropriate
Study Group 13 will continue to develop and manage the IP Project with the assistance of the other Study Groups

28. Thank you for your attention
