[tcmtf] Other potential specific uses of TCM-TF

["Jose Saldana" <[e-mail]>]

Hi all,

 

As you may know, if we get the BOF approved, we will have to discuss the WG
charter there. Currently these drafts are included in the WG charter (
<http://diec.unizar.es/~jsaldana/personal/ietf/tcmtf_charter_draft.pdf>
http://diec.unizar.es/~jsaldana/personal/ietf/tcmtf_charter_draft.pdf):

 

1- Draft "TCM-TF reference model": the different options which can be used
at each layer. 

2- Draft "TCM-TF negotiation protocol": setup/release a TCMTF session
including a negotiation mechanism to decide the options to use at each
layer.

3- Draft "TCM-TF recommendations": recommendations in order to decide which
packet flows can or can not be multiplexed and how.

 

For the charter discussion, it would be useful to have in mind (and perhaps
to mention) other potential specific uses of TCM-TF *that might contribute
unique requirements*.

 

- First of all, I think on the idea proposed by Tomaso and Matteo (DLR), as
said in n.10 of the current draft charter: "specific uses of TCMTF, such as
in wireless and satellite scenarios, could be considered, and it will be
studied whether modifications or extensions are required on the protocol".
It presents different and specific requirements.

 

- Do you think that instant messaging presents unique requirements with
respect to the normal use of TCM-TF? I don't think so, but perhaps someone
won't agree on this. In fact, instant messaging is already included in the
"TCM-TF recommendations" draft.

 

 

Any other ideas?

 

Jose
