[Css-rasg] RE: RASIG/SM+C Overlap Telecon #1 Notes

[Barkley, Erik J (317H)]

Mario,

Thanks very much for the comments.   Re Rec ID 1:  Glossary update and maintenance - agree and I will update this in the spreadsheet.

Re Rec ID 2:  I will see what I can do about the timeframe question.  Obviously sooner is better, but, as we know, resources are not exactly plentiful in CCSDS so I will have to check with the membership of SMWG and see what seems reasonable/feasible.  Consider this an action on my part.

Best regards,

-Erik

My comments:

Rec. ID 1
I believe we agreed that on one hand CCSDS has "domain-specific" terminology (e.g. telemetry, return services) which must be preserved. On the other hand, when the terminology overlaps with more generic domains (e.g. services) where the industry standards are worldwide consolidated, we should give preference the these in order to make the CCSDS specifications clearer and unambiguous. We also agreed that the revamping of CCSDS glossary is a very much needed activity which should provide a set of unambiguous terms that are used across CCSDS specs and that should be maintained under configuration control. Clearly, we are not there yet and a, once the glossary will be available, a long-term plan should be made so that all specs could be migrated to use consistent terminology.

Rec. ID 2
I know that we have not discussed at the telecon, but it would be nice to time-frame the agreed exercise to test MAL as a re-factoring technology for SM.

Ciao

CCSDS Colleagues,

Following is a brief summary with regard to our teleconference on Wednesday, 22 September 2010.  The bulk of the teleconference conclusions have been captured in the summaries on the Excel spreadsheet (under the column "draft conclusions"). Obviously this is just my take so please provide corrections as you deem necessary.

Best regards,

-Erik
