All Sessions Outcome
 
Session 1:  Keynote Session 1- 
Self-Driving Networks
Takeaways and Conclusions
1.
Self-Driving Networks can be as disruptive to
networking as self-driving cars can be to the
automotive industry
2.
Free up people from mundane tasks to work
on a higher level, unleashing creation of new
services while enabling greater network
security
3.
Need to transition through multiple stages –
current state-of-the art is at stage 2 or 3 of 5
4.
Machine Learning, Telemetry, Intent, and
Rule-Based systems will all likely be part of a
solution
5.
One barrier is instinctive hesitation to give up
control – needs to occur gradually to gain
confidence and earn user’s trust
  
Suggestions to FG NET2030
 
Evolve management plane with data and
control plane, not as an afterthought –
c
onsider management plane and
manageability as part of FG NET2030 scope
Consider architecture around a version of an
OODA control loop –
Observe/Orient/Decide/Act
 Self-managed SLAs for Network 2030
services an important use case to consider
 
Session 2:  
New Technologies I
Takeaways and Conclusions
 
1.
We need to pay attention to ML5G work for 5G access network to see if we  can
use their work for the Access Network in our architecture.
2.
We need to look into ETSI ENI specs to see if we can use it in our management
architecture.
3.
Network Programmability in FGNET2030 has been emphasized. We agree with
it.
 
Session 3: 
Keynote Session​ II: Intent-Based Networking
Takeaways and Conclusions
1.
Intent-Based Networking is an important technique
to keep abreast of network complexity and scale
2.
IBN allows users to define desired outcomes
(“what”), not how to reach them
3.
Data Center use cases are a good starting point;
Functional (De-)Composition is key
4.
IETF has started standardization of key concepts
5.
Intent-Based Monitoring and Analytics are just as
important as configuration activities; graph traversal
and telemetry are key for generating  actionable
insights
 
Suggestions to FG NET2030
 
 Consider IBN as a key component of Network 2030
     Management Plane
 
 Define what Intent use cases in the context of
Network
     2030 services and infrastructure (expected to be
     significantly more complex than Data Center
 
 Take entire intent lifecycle into consideration –
     monitoring compliance with intent once it is defined
 
Session 4:  
New Technologies II
Takeaways and Conclusions
1.
New IP provide new connecting and capability for Network
2030, which includes deterministic forwarding,
interconnection manynets, instinct security.
2.
A two-tier 360 video streaming framework with user Field-
of-View prediction and prioritized buffer control is proposed
to effectively accommodate the dynamics in both network
bandwidth and user viewing direction.
3.
Holographic media building blocks include packetization,
High precondition, qualitative, coordinated. Future media
support multi sensory for spatial compute ,teleportation etc.
4.
Services and the network are intrinsically linked. Use of BPP
need applications aware of BPP's behavior, and construct
packets with the correct structure etc.
 
Suggestions to FG NET2030
 
Consider new IP technologies in network 2030 including
the capabilities of deterministic forwarding,
interconnection manynets, instinct security, flexible
address space.
 A two-tier 360 video streaming framework with user
Field-of-View prediction and prioritized buffer control is
proposed to consider in network 2030 technology.
Holographic media transport technologies  including
packetization, High precondition, qualitative,
coordinated etc. should to consider in network 2030.
Service transport mechanism should aware
transportation layer technologies
 
Session 5:  
Service Provider 1
Takeaways and Conclusions
1.
Edge application requires flexible computing scheduling crossing edge cloud
2.
Build a computing scheduling solution based on cloud, network and edge deeply collaboration.
3.
More base stations are needed to accommodate short range connectivity
4.
Higher frequencies do not propagate through walls, as a result, base stations must be installed
indoors
5.
Spectrum regulation has to enable local frequency licensing for the benefit of different verticals
6.
Virtual and micro operators are expected to enter into the 5G market where a virtual operator
does not have own infrastructure but has own customer base, and a micro operator (uO) has own
infrastructure but not necessarily own customer base.
 
Session 6:  
Service Provider 2
Takeaways and Conclusions
1.
Future network will incorporate AI, all light
network, various kinds of network access and
lightweight core network equipment.
2.
 Technologies for ultra high dense and ultra low
latency will be realized.
3.
THz technologies are becoming mature and will
be used for communications. The THz network
has several advantages, such as ultra high
bandwidth, ultra low latency, cell-less network,
etc.
 
Suggestions to FG NET2030
 
Consider use cases, required technologies, etc.
 based on these future network direction.
 Consider future network use cases that assume
 the realization of ultra high dense network.
 Consider use cases, required technologies, etc.
 using a THz network and its advantages.
 
Session 7: New Technologies 3
Takeaways and Conclusions
1.
 
Integration of GEO/LEO satellite communications with
emerging terrestrial network systems, such as 5G, can offer
multiple benefits to fill ‘gaps’ that other networks can’t fill.
These benefits include:  coverage in isolated areas;
deployment ‘on-demand’ (e.g. disaster recovery); broadcast
to large volume of  users; reduce traffic burden from
terrestrial networks, and, offering an additional level of
resilience.
2.
If we are able to integrate networked LEO satellites into
Network 2030, then we foresee positive impacts upon:
additional connectivity; direct connections to end user
devices; edge caching; context aware traffic steering; and,
the emergence of new business models.
3.
There are challenges to overcome, but progress is being
made at pace and is promising.
 
Suggestions to FG NET2030
 
Consider:
How to overcome and incorporate the challenges related to satellite
networks to get the most out of the technology to realise the
benefits.
Costs to benefit ratio and business/use cases for satellite needs to
be understood.
FG Net2030 architecture should consider the scenarios (such as
backhaul-only through to direct UE device access) of integrating LEO
satellite networks, accounting for factors such as:
Latency; capacity; unified addressing and routing; edge content
caching; handover based on predictable constellation behaviours;
admission control; and, resource management
 
Session 7: New Technologies 3
Takeaways and Conclusions
1.
 
Convergence in the context of Network 2030 goes beyond
‘traditional’ telecommunications modalities and technologies,
also incorporating IT e.g. AI, ML, cloud, and distributed
ledgers/block chain, as building blocks of Network 2030 - an
AI and data-driven architecture
2.
This enables autonomy, which in turn enables us to generate
and extract the maximum value from data (for providers
(operations and services) and consumers (use
case/applications – such as Digital Twins and IoT)).
3.
‘Trust and confidence’ in the intelligent and effective use of
data is critical, especially for high value, business or safety
critical decision making in an increasingly decentralised
paradigm.  The same trust and confidence is required for
algorithms.
4.
Potential solutions to create trust include distributed ledgers
and blockchain.
 
Suggestions to FG NET2030
 
Consider:
How to interconnect decentralised platforms and
networks.
The lessons learnt from ITU-T FG-DPM
Standardisation across data-driven ICT groups.  What are the
fundamental elements across all groups? E.g. security, privacy,
governance, interoperability, trust
The interplay of AI, data and networks. What are the distributed
data orientated and intelligence defined platforms that will drive
Networks of the Future?
Better ways of working and communicating across ITU
groups in order to:
Identify challenging work items ,
Remove silos and not re-invent wheels
Stimulate related activities to evolve strategic direction and increase
contributions
Collaborate and cooperate through increased ‘Liaison
