For Discussion: Establishing Governance Principles and Framework for a Data-Driven Approach to Shared Understanding and Joint Action on Network Performance Challenges (41HF)
- What Works? (41HG)
- What Doesn't Work? (41HH)
- What do We Need to Create? (41HI)
- What do We Need to Know? (41HJ)
Ravi Sharma: Thoughts on the topic to start the discussion or dialog: 1.Governance assumes structure, at least collaborative and federated with Trusted authority or contractual understanding and business rules for information to be shared or exchanged including scientific cyber based computations (41I1)
Discussion Notes: (41IG)
- Governance: (41I2)
- structure/framework one is operating under (41I3)
- business rules (41I5)
- trust; social context as the environment in which network governance can take place (41I4)
- priority (41ID)
- challenge: no single point of authority (especially in global collaborations) (41IE)
- stakeholders: the network users (scientists) vs. the network operators - need better collaboration and explicit governance guidelines (e.g. LHC is a case in point ) (41IH)
- Data and shared information, extending to shared understanding (41I6)
- informal agreements probably works better (41IL)
- further processing of network distributed data by different communities, and sharing that (41JW)
- consider a next level of abstraction through the use of ontologies - on governance, data models, etc. (41JX)
- commercialization of internet2 technologies will introduce new challenges in the desire to share, as well as in security (41K7)
