OFCOM Technology Discovery Programme on Future Internet 2020
30 October 2020
I gave a presentation entitled
Evolving the Internet to the OFCOM Technology Discovery Programme
on the Future Internet.
In the talk, I discussed some recent and ongoing activities in the IETF
and IRTF, and highlighted tensions between the different directions in
which work is developing. In particular, I noted differences in the
approach to protocol development between the work driven by network
operators and that supported primarily by large-scale application
providers, and considered some implications of this for the evolution
of the Internet.
