Subject: [Beyond the Internet? - ITU Kaleidoscope 2010] Standards tutorial on 16 December 2010

 

Dear colleagues,

 

We wish to provide you with some updates on the organization of the ITU Kaleidoscope event − “Beyond the Internet? − Innovations for future networks and services” − Pune, India, 13 – 15 December 2010 (www.itu-kaleidoscope.org/2010).

 

This year's event will be followed by a tutorial on Standardization organized by the ITU on 16 December 2010, which will complement the "Standards Corner". All Kaleidoscope participants are encouraged to attend this additional free event, which will cover background information on how standardization works as well as a simulation of a standards-setting meeting. Participants coming from both academia and industry will gain practical and theoretic knowledge about international standardization. Topics cover inter alia preparation towards participation in an upcoming meeting, the role of the secretariat, how the management of a standardization group ensures the smooth progress of a meeting. 

 

The aim of Kaleidoscope conferences is to identify information and communication technologies (ICTs) for which the development of standards can turn innovations into successful products and services, but it is also a venue to disseminate knoledge on international standardization processes, which become more and more important with the rapid evolution of ICTs. More information on the tutorial will be soon available on the Kaleidoscope web pages (www.itu-kaleidoscope.org/2010).
