project, and gained supports from the ICT industry.

The NGSON PAR*
5.2 Scope:
This standard describes a framework of Internet
Protocol (IP)-based service overlay networks and
specifies context-aware, dynamically adaptive, and selforganizing networking capabilities, including advanced
routing and forwarding schemes, and that are
independent of underlying transport networks.
*PAR – Project Authorization Request

Some Definitions
“context-aware”
 (e.g., such as required QoS level, type of service such as
real-time vs. data, nature of data stream such as I-frame vs.
B-frame, and type of terminal such as TV HD monitor vs.
PDA)
“dynamically adaptive”
 (e.g., using locally derived information to discover, organize,
and maintain traffic flows in the network within a local area
network)
“self-organizing networking capabilities”
 (e.g., developing network structures based on the needs of
the customers and the capabilities of existing network
structures)

5.4 Purpose:
The purpose of this standard is to enable
network operators, service/content providers,
and end-users to provide and consume
collaborative services by the deployment of
context-aware, dynamically adaptive, and selforganizing networking capabilities.

5.5 Need for the Project:
The amount of services and applications and
their interaction are increasing at an exponential
rate. This standard is needed to provide a better,
more efficient way of providing these services
and applications by means of context-aware,
dynamically adaptive, and self-organizing
networking capabilities.

Architectural Intent
Our intent is not to duplicate or re-do any work
associated with existing architectures or the
functions associated with those architectures, but
to use what is available.
We intend to work outside of areas (but in
cooperation with) currently being done by such
bodies as ITU-T, TISPAN, OASIS, ATIS SON and PTSC,
OMA, PARLAY, 3GPP, TMF.

• Focus on the sharing of the user
data between services
• Centralized management of user
data
• Focus on the user's control.

Goal
• Focuses on the definition of
each interface and details of
interaction,
• Define management interfaces
and the core elements needed
for service management
• Emphasis is on the
management aspects
• Constructing a service overlay
network architecture to help service
interaction, collaboration,
management and service

User
• Establish a service delivery
framework based on SOA by
integrating all possible kinds of
network resource and service
capabilities
• Establish a framework of service
network overlay based on IP using
context-aware, dynamically adaptive

capabilities
Use Case Issues
• At 8:59pm, everyone changes channels.
What happens to the network and how is
it controlled?
• At 3pm, the teenagers return home
from school and start numerous peer-topeer (P2P) networks. Which entity sets
up the P2P networks and manages them?

Key technologies (1)
• Self-organized networking
 Dynamically locate contents taking into account the location of
the user as well as his/her access conditions.
 Dynamically publish a range of services that may be accessed by a
user, based upon his/her profile, and interests.
 Dynamically (re)configure network devices, depending on the
traffic load conditions, the provisioning of additional content
servers, etc.
 Dynamically notify users about the efficiency of a Quality of
Service (QoS) and/or security policy.
15 May 2009 – ITU-T SG13 / IEEE Workshop
Slide 16
Key technologies (2)
• Service composition and interaction
 In order to respond to customer demand quickly and shorten
the service development cycle, service networks need to offer
an on-demand and flexible composition mechanism.
Dynamically compose the related basic services to meet the
requirement of users.
 Research a common service interaction protocol, provide a
solution for service interaction.
• Service accounting
 Based on service/resource rate registration, the system will
support real-time charge negotiation during the service
composition.
 Accounting will support intelligent charging based on service chain.
15 May 2009 – ITU-T SG13 / IEEE Workshop
Slide 17
Key technologies (3)
• Service & resource addressing
 When the number of applications & service is very large on service
network, NGSN will consider how quickly to discover target service for
service interaction and service composition.
 To provide a uniform resource search and access mechanism to
reduce the cost of different access protocol and un-structured resource
discovery.
 Address types of network layer & service layer have multiple
instantiations; in order to make services in heterogeneous networks and
domains interact directly, NGSN will research a uniform service
addressing mechanism.
• Context-aware service routing
 Research a new service routing based on the service addressing, it
can provide context-aware service routing according to service
provider’s policy. Service interaction and service management will be
benefited by this feature.
15 May 2009 – ITU-T SG13 / IEEE Workshop
Slide 18
Key technologies (4)
•
Service registration
 To support the context-based routing, the dynamic information
about services can registry or de-registry to NGSON.
• Service publication/discovery
 To facilitate the user or service creator to find the existing
services, NGSON provides a scalable way to obtain the
interfaces, SLA, QoS and other static information about services.
•
Mobility
 Include user mobility and the session continuity
 User change the attachment point across heterogeneous
network
 Handover from different service providers or different terminals

High Level Technical View of NGSON
• Provide more automated delivery capabilities keyed to the
self-organization of the services/applications of the overlay
network based on context awareness.
• Composing services/applications dynamically.
• Self-organize services/applications on an overlay to provide
simplified access by service providers and users.
• Allow a wide range of services/applications to be offered
through different networks to different devices using a range
of resources, all based on context awareness.

Challenges
• The area of service networks is going to get more and more
active in the standards arena and will need serious
coordination.
• For technical aspects (i.e., the network service/transport
folks), ‘context aware’, ‘dynamically adaptive’ and ‘selforganizing’ become technical challenges.
• Implementation and accounting methodologies become a
business challenges.
