Standardization Concerns
• ULOOP overall specification achieved in M18
• First demo expected on month 25
• Results to be taken to standardization require
specification
Timeliness of results
• IETF /IRTF as the most accessible entities
• IEEE requires a long standardizatio n cycle
• Current access partners in ULOOP are not focused
on resource management
Standardization bodies
cycles
• ULOOP is currently drafting IPRs
• Implications on the timeline to open results
IPRs

Aspects that May Help
• Where were other ICT projects successful?
• How long was the cycle to provide such results?
• Which partners worked towards the definition of
results
• Which timeframe is reasonable to consider from na
EU ICT project perspective?
Statistics concerning other
projects/activities
• Regular workshops, events, etc to discuss potential
standardization
• Invite main representants of relevant bodies (e.g.
3GPP, relevant groups; IEEE; IETF) to the event
Brokerage events
• Provide project consortiums with specific liaison
contacts to assist in assessing relevancy and maturity
of results
Specific ICT Liaison
contacts for standardization
