FORUM ON NEXT GENERATION STANDARDIZATION
(Colombo, Sri Lanka, 7-10 April 2009)
Broadcasting, Multicasting, Person to Person &
Machine to Machine communications
The Objective is to look at the issues concerning the support of
streaming type services over NGN, real-time conversational
multimedia services and fixed-mobile convergent environments.
How new services over NGN will bring additional value to subscribers
and service providers. Also to identify the issues relating to
broadcast, multicast, P2P & interactive M2M environments.

operators to adopt new models to become a business operator
Mentioned about overall cost savings in NGN deployment, to
offer better customer service, making them more competitive
Stressed on the importance of open layered platforms.
Highlighted concept to market, lead to cash and trouble to
restore ways

Conclusions / Recommendations
It became quite evident that new services over the NGN
brings distinct advantages to operators as well as end
consumers.
It is not only significant cost savings for the operators to
implement NGN, but also provides new revenue opportunities
and makes them a business operator
There are many challenges in bringing streaming services
over the wireless networks for consumers
The right selection of the mix of technology and the
technology partner by the operator is vital for the success of
NGN deployment and an end-to-end approach is necessary
End-to-end convergence at all network layers is a must
Fixed Mobile convergence and flat IP architecture are building
blocks for this convergence approach
There is a dire need for standardization for Global
interoperability and 3rd party open applications interface
Security issues covering service purchase and protection
needs strengthening for a successful NGN service offering
