Hello attendees of the side meeting on information exposure: Thank you all for attending and thanks to the speakers who presented their work, including those of you who presented from very "challenging" time zones in the US.
The meeting was well attended and with plenty of contributions/speakers describing relevant use cases. Due to logistical/tech challenges and in the interest to cover all the presentations and being receptive to all work, we had little time for discussions, but we plan to enable them next. As a next step, we will be digesting all the presentations and follow up with you to enable discussions on how we collectively think that this work can best fit within the IETF. You can also find all the material produced from the two side meetings 118/119 in this repo, including the minutes and presentations: https://github.com/communication-compute-exposure/ietf-side-meetings/tree/main/ietf-119-side-meeting Thank you, Jordi on behalf of the organizers of this side meeting. ________________________________ From: Cats <cats-boun...@ietf.org> on behalf of Jordi Ros Giralt <j...@qti.qualcomm.com> Sent: Tuesday, February 27, 2024 7:24 To: c...@ietf.org <c...@ietf.org>; opsawg@ietf.org <opsawg@ietf.org>; n...@ietf.org <n...@ietf.org>; c...@irtf.org <c...@irtf.org>; a...@ietf.org <a...@ietf.org>; b...@ietf.org <b...@ietf.org> Cc: Randriamasy, Sabine (Nokia - FR/Paris-Saclay) <sabine.randriam...@nokia-bell-labs.com>; LUIS MIGUEL CONTRERAS MURILLO <luismiguel.contrerasmuri...@telefonica.com>; roland.sch...@telekom.de <roland.sch...@telekom.de> Subject: [Cats] IETF 119 Side Meeting on Exposure of Network and Compute Information for the Edge WARNING: This email originated from outside of Qualcomm. Please be wary of any links or attachments, and do not enable macros. Hello all: We are planning on doing a side meeting during the IETF 119 on "exposure of network and compute information to support edge computing applications". This is a follow up from the side meeting we had in IETF 118 on the same topic, for which you can find the materials/recordings in this repo: https://github.com/compute-exposure/ietf-side-meetings/tree/main/ietf-119-side-meeting At this point we would like to welcome presentations. If you would like to present a related topic, please reply to me directly in this email and CC Luis (luismiguel.contrerasmuri...@telefonica.com<mailto:luismiguel.contrerasmuri...@telefonica.com>), Sabine (sabine.randriam...@nokia-bell-labs.com<mailto:sabine.randriam...@nokia-bell-labs.com>), and Roland (roland.sch...@telekom.de<mailto:roland.sch...@telekom.de>). The topics of interest for this side meeting will be: - Use cases of exposure of network and compute information. - Relevant information/metrics for exposure. What compute and network information metrics should be exposed? (driven by use cases) - Exposure mechanisms. Mechanisms to expose such information from the network to the application or the service provider. - Security. Mechanisms to ensure the exposure of information is securely done. - Related art and proof-of-concepts. - Discussions on next steps. **Problem motivation.** As the industry has reached peak computational centralization, compute needs communication to scale through distributed computing. There is a need to have a forum to discuss how the two sides of the same coin (compute and communication) can be exposed to the application to make efficient service placement and selection decisions. This information exposure is to support several application lifecycle operations including compute and communication resource discovery, service deployment, service selection, and assurance. This is especially important at the edge of the network, where services such as distributed AI, XR/VR, vehicle networks (V2X), etc. need this compute and communication information to meet stringent performance requirements. Exposed information should also account for the application footprint reaching out to cellular networks and for trust capabilities. We will also very soon announce the time and location for this side meeting. (You will see that we have tentatively blocked a time slot already in the IETF wiki.) We look forward to your participation. Thank you. Jordi, Sabine, Roland, Luis on behalf of this side meeting
