2. Highlight of Current Activities (1)
Interconnection
Maintain close coordination with 3GPP, other TCs and groups
Increase awareness of value of interoperability testing and of good design principles
Regulatory requirements
Energy efficiency
Impact of Smart Metering on NGN and CPN
Content Network Distribution

3. Highlight of Current Activities (2)
IPTV
Work on Peer-to-Peer IPTV was completed in 2009
UGC, Push CoD, Session Transfer, Session Markers
Key management, Security
Interaction with Customer Premises Networks
Integrated IPTV in standalone network with DVB
IMS based IPTV reusing IMS capabilities
Participation in NIMS project activities and fora (focus IPTV) of IDA and MDA (Singaporean authorities).
PES PSTN Emulation
the application of IMS to PES

4. Highlight of Current Activities (3)
Co-operation with TC SES
TC SES is developing a range of specifications and reports that define functions for IP interworking over Fixed Satellite Systems. This uses a layered architecture that separates the satellite dependent (SD) and satellite independent (SI) functions.
TC SES is developing IP-based Satellite Radio Interfaces for 2nd and 3rd generation Mobile Satellite Systems (2G/3G) and also studying future MSS architectures for 4G and beyond 4G.

5. Strategic Direction
Foster TISPAN as a globally well recognised partner for NGN evolution.
Maintain close co-operation with all relevant access network technologies.
Maintain close co-operation with PSOs.
Studies around NGN as network choice for applications and traffic sources like e.g. machine-to-machine, Internet of Things, intelligent transport systems, IPTV, content distribution, smart metering, smart grids etc.
Studies around future network technologies like network virtualisation and content-centric routeing.

6. Challenges
Ensuring economic benefits of IMS-based NGN to operators and end customers.
Identifying common modules for migration paths to world-spanning IMS.
Convergence of different infrastructures.
Impact of Smart Metering and Smart Grids.
Security.
Privacy.
Impact of M2M communication, Internet of Things.
Interconnection.
Policy control across access technologies.
Avoid re-inventing the wheel: surveying related groups for material of relevance and evaluating if it can be incorporated.

7. Next Steps/Actions
Actions around NGN as network choice for applications and traffic source like machine-to-machine, Internet of Things, intelligent transport systems, IPTV, content distribution, smart metering, smart grids etc.
Security
Impact of the convergence of multiple infrastructures.
Evaluation of the emerging threats for the definition of the right countermeasures.
Define robust Identify management tools for the convergence (of different network technologies) and the mobility of the customers.
Application layer security in the NGN.
Co-existence and integration of NGA and NGN security mechanisms.

8. Proposed Resolution [optional]
GSC-15 is invited to endorse the following addition to the NGN Resolution (as another bulleted sub-item in item 2) under “Resolves”):
NGN as network choice for applications and traffic source like machine-to-machine, Internet of Things, intelligent transport systems, IPTV, content distribution, smart metering, smart grids etc.
