It begins with definitions of standards and their importance, then describes several prominent SDOs including IEEE, Broadband Forum, IETF, ITU-T and their roles in developing standards for technologies like broadband, networking, and telecommunications. The document provides examples of working groups and standards within each SDO.
CSP related Standards and SDOs
- 1. CSP related Standards and SDOs JUNE 2013 By Eng. Anuradha Udunuwara, BSc.Eng(Hons), CEng, MIE(SL), MEF-CECP, MBCS, ITILv3 Foundation, MIEEE, MIEEE-CS, MIEE, MIET, MCS(SL), MSLAAS
- 2. Agenda • What are Standards? • Why standards? • SDOs (c) Anuradha Udunuwara 2
- 3. What are standards? Inch is a standard of measurement Money is a standard of exchange Words are standards of communication Traffic lights are safety standards Octane numbers of gasoline are quality standards "No more than 1% shrinkage" is a performance standard 3 (c) Anuradha Udunuwara
- 4. What are standards?, Cont., Published documents that establish specifications and procedures designed to maximize the reliability of the materials, products, methods, and/or services people use every day Address a range of issues, including but not limited to various protocols to help maximize product functionality and compatibility, facilitate interoperability and support consumer safety and public health Form the fundamental building blocks for product development by establishing consistent protocols that can be universally understood and adopted. This helps fuel compatibility and interoperability and simplifies product development, and speeds time-to-market Make it easier to understand and compare competing products. As standards are globally adopted and applied in many markets, they also fuel international trade It is only through the use of standards that the requirements of interconnectivity and interoperability can be assured Summary: standards fuel the development and implementation of technologies that influence and transform the way we live, work and communicate. They make our lives safer, easier, and better 4 (c) Anuradha Udunuwara
- 5. History of standards Standards are known to have existed as early as 7000 B.C. when cylindrical stones were used as units of weight in Egypt One of the first known attempts at standardization in the Western world occurred in 1120. King Henry I of England ordered that the ell, the ancient yard, should be the exact length of his forearm, and that it should be used as the standard unit of length in his kingdom History also notes that, in 1689, the Boston city fathers recognized the need for standardization when they passed a law making it a civic crime to manufacture bricks in any size other than 9x4x4. The city had just been destroyed by fire, and the city fathers decided that standards would assure rebuilding in the most economic and fastest way possible Probably the most significant standard ever developed in the United States, however, was the railroads' standard track gage. This standard, now used in Great Britain, the U.S., Canada and much of continental Europe, enables railroad rolling stock to cross the country. 5 (c) Anuradha Udunuwara
- 6. Why do we need standards? World without standards? Products might not work as expected They may be of inferior quality incompatible with other equipment, in fact they may not even connect with them, and in extreme cases; non- standardized products may even be dangerous Knowledge of standards help facilitate the transition from classroom to professional practice by aligning educational concepts with real-world applications 6 (c) Anuradha Udunuwara
- 7. How is a Standard Created? Most standards are developed by committees of volunteers, which can include members of industry, government, and the public These originations are known as Standards Development Organization (SDO), which adheres to fair and equitable processes that ensure the highest quality outputs and reinforce the market relevance of standards Goals of each SDO are essentially the same, each SDO applies its own rules, processes, terminology to the standards development process 7 (c) Anuradha Udunuwara
- 8. Benefits of standards • encourage economies of scale • enable manufacturers to comply with legislation • promote the interoperability of products and services • facilitate the uptake of innovation in the marketplace • encourage greater competition • facilitate trade by diminishing trade barriers • support environmental sustainability • reflect the outcome of research and development • promote common understanding • enhance the safety of products • quality 8 (c) Anuradha Udunuwara
- 9. CSP related standards Critical to the global interoperability of ICTs and whether we exchange voice, video or data messages, standards enable global communications by ensuring that countries‟ ICT networks and devices are speaking the same language International ICT standards avoid costly market battles over preferred technologies, and for companies from emerging markets, they create a level playing field which provides access to new markets An essential aid to developing countries in building their infrastructure and encouraging economic development, and through economies of scale, they can reduce costs for all: manufacturers, operators and consumers (c) Anuradha Udunuwara 9

- 17. IP/MPLS Forum Started initially as three distinct forums: the ATM Forum, the Frame Relay Forum and the MPLS Forum, and grew out of the evolution of IP transport technology Key development from this organization was the development of global standard implementation agreements, industry-wide educational programs, and multi-vendor interoperability testing In 2008, the IP/MPLS Forum was determined to follow technology convergence and looked to unite with another organization that had a similar vision of the future and the activities required to continue to drive the global success of MPLS. In that search, various organizations shared similar goals, scope or membership but there was one that stood out as the strongest candidate - the Broadband Forum In May 2009, the two Forums united, and are focused on driving the evolution to next generation IP networks and empowering fixed mobile convergence evolution With the Broadband Forum's focus spanning from broadband network to digital home management, their work complements the work of the IP/MPLS Forum, which primarily addresses the core and access aggregation Expanding the Broadband Forum's objectives to encompass the next phase of IP/MPLS Forum work will ensure seamless broadband network optimization and convergence for the industry 17 (c) Anuradha Udunuwara
