Dear all,

We will have two NMRG sessions in IETF 106 planned as below (subject to changes):

- Session 1: Thursday 2019/11/21 10:00 - 12:00 (local time)
- Session 2: Friday 2019/11/22 12:20 – 13:50 (local time)

Session 1 will focus on the Intent-based Networking topic with:
1) Quick report on October interim meeting on practical aspects of IBN, and follow-ups
2) Status and progress of active I-Ds
3) Technical presentations and discussion on
- Architecture/functionality
- Use cases and validation scenarios
- Techniques

For point 3), we invite presentations on various, AI and non-AI based, techniques 
addressing the IBN challenges and problems of IBN.
We are interested in learning which techniques are useful and applicable, their 
benefits, limits and drawbacks, including quantitative and qualitative 
comparison/evaluation between different techniques or approaches.
The diagrams in presentations [1], [2] and [3] can help as support to identify 
specific functional components or phases with challenges and issues to solve.

Please reply to chairs with your proposals by Thursday, October 31st 2019.

Best regards
Jérôme & Laurent
NMRG chairs
