WORK IN PROGRESS DRAFT

Background

A Multi-SDO  workshop was held on the 29th Sept 2020 to explore the coordination of standards for Autonomous Networks.

It was agreed to explore initially the  alignment of definitions of common terms used in Autonomous Networks.

• Autonomous Networks
• Autonomous Domains
• Autonomous Levels 
• Intent ( driven interactions) 
• Close Loop
  
  

This follow up workshop proposal is to progress these intial objective and to cover any  next  steps. 

Workshop Objectives 

tbc

1. Progress and review candidate definitions of key terms.
2. Identify next steps  for reaching industry consensus and building the collaboration ecosystem for E2E AN blueprint.
3. Identify additional areas for coordination ( Proposals to be added as contributions)
4. Marketing / Press release.

Editors note: The agreement form first are in the minutes at :

• 2020-09-28 Multi-SDO Autonomous Network Coordination Workshop Meeting notes

• Overall plan:
•  Start from the consensus and alignment of basic concepts, terminologies, framework, and key perspectives including definition of Autonomous Networks, closed loop, Autonomous Networks Levels, Autonomous domains, Intent driven interaction and open discussions.
•  Further deep dive on the development of key technical mechanisms, framework and interfaces, as well as use cases/PoCs and testing and verification mechanisms to support autonomous networks.
• Next steps:
• Set up a “Cross SDO Autonomous Networks Collaboration” email group with the representatives of participating SDOs to kick off the information sharing and open discussion, starting from Item 1 above.
• 2Set up a repository for information sharing and working documents.
• Schedule the discussion workshop on demand (e.g. monthly) to sync up and tackle the open issues.
