What’s it all aboutSeptember 2012

Originators• IEEE• Internet Architecture Board

(IAB)• Internet Engineering Task Force

(IETF)• Internet Society• World Wide Web Consortium

(W3C)10

Principles• Establish a modern paradigm for global, open standards

development• Based on effective and efficient standardization processes

that have made the Internet and Web the premier platforms for innovation and borderless commerce

• Foster competition and cooperation• Support innovation and interoperability• Drive market success

11

Principles1. CooperationRespectful cooperation between standards organizations, whereby each respects the autonomy, integrity, processes, and intellectual property rules of the others.

12

Principles2. Adherence to Five FundamentalsDue process. Decisions are made with equity and fairness among participants. No one party dominates or guides standards development. Standards processes are transparent and opportunities exist to appeal decisions. Processes for periodic standards review and updating are well defined.

Broad consensus. Processes allow for all views to be considered and addressed, such that agreement can be found across a range of interests.

Transparency. Standards organizations provide advance public notice of proposed standards development activities, the scope of work to be undertaken, and conditions for participation. Easily accessible records of decisions and the materials used in reaching those decisions are provided. Public comment periods are provided before final standards approval and adoption. Balance. Standards activities are not exclusively dominated by any particular person, company or interest group.

Openness. Standards processes are open to all interested and informed parties

13

Principles3. Collective EmpowermentCommitment by affirming standards organizations and their participants to collective empowerment by striving for standards that:are chosen and defined based on technical merit, as judged by the contributed expertise of each participant; provide global interoperability, scalability, stability, and resiliency; enable global competition; serve as building blocks for further innovation; and contribute to the creation of global communities, benefiting humanity.

14

Principles4. AvailabilityStandards specifications are made accessible to all for implementation and deployment. Affirming standards organizations have defined procedures to develop specifications that can be implemented under fair terms. Given market diversity, fair terms may vary from royalty-free to fair, reasonable, and non-discriminatory terms (FRAND).

15

Principles5. Voluntary AdoptionStandards are voluntarily adopted and success is determined by the market.

16

Why• Economics of global markets—fueled by technological innovation

—driving global deployment of standards, regardless of those standards’ formal status within the traditional bodies of national representation

• To help reduce the burden on industry to conform from market to market

• To increase coordination among standards organizations so that global industry does not have to exert extraordinary effort and shoulder terrific overhead of process to meet country-by-country standards requirements

• To realize an efficient global standards environment that is more straightforward for industry to navigate and that more quickly and cost-effectively avails consumers to innovations

17

Why Now• Technology innovation is exploding • World needs technically excellent

standards to be developed more quickly

• World needs technology solutions, through standards, that benefit humanity

18

The Benefits• Empowered market to choose the appropriate

solutions and decide which standards are relevant• Markets become self-sustaining and drive innovation

in technology, products and services• Consumers benefit from better products, improved

interoperability, greater simplicity and more competitive prices

• Industry realizes a globally scaled marketplace for its products and services

• Humanity benefits• Open standards + open access = open innovation
