To analyze the related state of the art in standardization and policy versus the user/ISP perceived requirements.Ĥ. To survey both ISP and user (site) requirements for routing in the next generation of networks.ģ. To coordinate a community 'Think tank' on routing aspects (Routing Cluster), providing operational support for the organization of open working meetings and other collaboration tools, such as an e-mail exploder and web site.Ģ. The project will therefore look for a community consensus on implementation of the project results by means external to the project.ġ. The research and innovation strategies proposed in the project will most probably require further standardization and elaboration of the policy. Through its activities the project will seek to foster the European participation in the related pre-standardization, standardization and policy making processes, to monitor the developments and to disseminate the results. The project will analyze and document the state of the art in standardization and policy, survey the users and service providers, and propose further alternative research and innovation strategies to address the identified challenges. This 'Routing Cluster' will include not only experts from other relevant IST projects, but also from related international activities. The project has set up an expert group, which will be open to the participation of other experts by collaborative means, leading to a broader community 'think tank' on the topic. This will lead to proposals for novel approaches towards the evolution of routing. The goal of RiNG is to support the coordination, study and analysis of routing protocols on the Internet, to identify and analyze the challenges ahead, considering the current and future expected Internet growth.
