Greetings, all, and apologies for the cross-posting,

We'll be having a first meeting of the proposed Path Aware Networking
(PAN) RG at IETF 99 in Prague next week, 13:30 Wednesday in Congress
Hall 3. It's been suggested The scope of this RG might be of interest
to your working group, research group, or BoF, so I hope you'll have
a chance to drop by. Olivier Bonaventure will give a review and overview
of research to date in this space, and Adrian Perrig will present a
fully path-aware Internet architecture, as an illustration of what is
possible when path-awareness is promoted to a first-order goal.

=46rom our proposed charter =
(https://datatracker.ietf.org/group/panrg/about):

The Internet architecture assumes a division between the end-to-end
functionality of the transport layer and the properties of the path =
between the
endpoints. The path is assumed to be invisible, homogeneous, singular, =
with
dynamics solely determined by the connectivity of the endpoints and the =
Internet
control plane. Endpoints have very little information about the paths =
over which
their traffic is carried, and no control at all beyond the destination =
address.

Increased diversity in access networks, and ubiquitous mobile =
connectivity, have
made this architecture's assumptions about paths less tenable. Multipath
protocols taking advantage of this mobile connectivity begin to show us =
a way
forward, though: if endpoints cannot control the path, at least they can
determine the properties of the path by choosing among paths available =
to them.

This research group aims to support research in bringing path awareness =
to
transport and application layer protocols, and to bring research in this =
space
to the attention of the Internet engineering and protocol design =
community.

The scope of work within the RG includes, but is not strictly limited =
to:

- communication and discovery of information about the properties of a =
path on
local networks and in internetworks, exploration of trust and risk =
models
associated with this information, and algorithms for path selection at
endpoints based on this information.

- algorithms for making transport-layer scheduling decisions based on
information about path properties.

- algorithms for reconciling path selection at endpoints with widely =
deployed
routing protocols and network operations best practices.

The research group's scope overlaps with existing IETF and IRTF efforts, =
and
will collaborate with groups chartered to work on multipath transport =
protocols
(MPTCP, QUIC, TSVWG), congestion control in multiply-connected =
environments
(ICCRG), and alternate routing architectures (e.g. LISP), and is related =
to
the questions raised in the multiple recent BoF sessions that have =
addressed
path awareness and multiply-connected networks (e.g. SPUD, PLUS, =
BANANA).

The PAN(P)RG intends to meet at each IETF meeting until a
determination is made whether or not to charter it. Afterward, the RG =
intends to
meet at 1-3 IETF meetings per year, and hold one workshop per year, =
collocated
with a related academic conference.

Thanks, cheers

Brian (as co-chair PAN PRG)
