TSB 1 Excerpts from Presentation at ICSCA VIII-2 Berlin, Germany, 27 February 2002 by Houlin ZHAO Director Telecommunication Standardization Bureau (TSB) International Telecommunication Union, Geneva Place des Nations - CH-1211 Geneva 20 – Switzerland Tel: Fax: ITU Home page address: Present situation and future vision of ITU-T

TSB 2  ITU mainly financed by Governments  work dominated by industry  procedures very efficient, no longer slow  seek effective cooperation with SDOs to share the work  should be open to emerging technologies  should be open to researchers / students  try to keep its pre-eminent status Situation of ITU Standardization

TSB 3  Questions (projects)  Contributions driven (normal contributions, delayed contributions, temporary documents)  face-to-face meeting: - debate, determination, approval of reports, approval of Questions - SG/WP meetings: decision making; Rapporteur meetings: develop texts  Decision = consensus, unanimous agreements  Recommendations (Amendments, Corrigenda, supplements) draft Recommendations, determined draft Recommendations approved Recommendations, pre-published Recommendations, published Recommendations  Implementor’s Guides  Meeting reports  Electronic submissions, web consultations, , ftp  Paperless meeting – LAN/Wireless – LAN connections in meeting rooms Working methods

TSB 10  Cooperation on common subjects (liaisons, communications, mutual participation)  Cooperation on workshops  ITU-T provide draft texts and other documents to SDOs to post for public consultation  ITU’s permission for SDOs to reproduce ITU-T texts  More to be done for mutual benefit: market study, joint promotion, mutual reference, joint conferences, efficient coordination, common IPR policy, etc. Cooperation activities with SDOs (General)

TSB 11 In the past -control by governments with participation of industry -international coordination by a few recognized SDOs Today -market-oriented -shared by government / regulator / service providers / vendors - consultant / researcher / student participation -many SDOs (national, regional, multinational, international) Working forces for international telecommunication standardization

TSB 12  rapid development of technologies  liberalization of markets  globalization of economy  convergence of services  conflicts of markets interest vs global availability  many SDOs  limited resources  expert’s prejudices based on the past  IPR issues Challenges to standardization

TSB 13  nobody can do everything, but everybody wants more  out-of-control creation of forums / consortia / SDOs  no effective cooperation among forums / consortia / SDOs, but competition  industry suffers from heavy involvement with too many SDOs they created / sponsored (hundreds in the market)  established international SDOs not used efficiently (exploring use of existing SDOs vs proliferation of SDOs) Challenges to SDOs
