This new environment demands new testing paradigms and the IEEE together with EIT Digital are stepping up to this challenge. Included in the roadmap are:
Eileen Healy, Co-Chair of the IEEE SDN Initiative, agreed and added, "This collaboration has already resulted in the creation of a new 'Wikipedia of Testbeds and Toolkits' which is desirable to allow the sharing of test platforms, plans and/or results within the telecom ecosystem. This will improve resiliency, security and performance of next gen networks." The workshop was part of the IEEE 5G Summit series, demonstrating the continued collaboration between IEEE and EIT Digital aimed at providing the community at large the support of two trusted third party organizations to the acceleration of 5G innovation around an open forum.
