IEEE 1903.1-2017

This standard specifies protocols among content delivery (CD) functional entity (FE), service routing (SR) FE, service policy decision (SPD) FE, service discovery and negotiation (SDN) FE, and context information management (CIM) FE to support advanced content delivery capability in next generation service overlay networks. The content delivery capability aims to support content discovery, content cache and storage management, content delivery control, and transport QoS control including context-aware and dynamically adaptive content delivery operations.

The purpose of this standard is to enable network operators, service/content providers, and end users to provide and consume content services based on advanced content delivery capability of a Next Generation Service Overlay Network (NGSON) with context-aware and dynamically adaptive features. This standard is also to provide interoperability of content services between network operators and content provide

New IEEE Standard - Active. Protocols to support advanced content delivery capability in next generation service overlay networks including content delivery (CD) functional entity (FE), service routing (SR) FE, service policy decision (SPD) FE, service discovery and negotiation (SDN) FE, and context information management (CIM) FE are specified in this standard. Content discovery, content cache and storage management, content delivery control, and transport QoS control, including contextaware and dynamically adaptive content delivery operations, are supported by the content delivery capability.
