    • Standard agenda as yet.

• Wrapping up ONAP Kohn tasks for A1-Policy Management Service

  • e.g. Docs

• Service Exposure:

  • Continuing work on this topic

  • Still need to push up some of the artifacts from the demo a few weeks ago

  • Working on a CAPIF core implementation - backend for service registry & discovery etc.

    • Will continue across next release

• Data Exposure

  • Still working on PM collection, filtering & distribution

  • Trying to find a solution for Data exposure enforcement similar to SEF enfocement

    • ,,, but need some additional work, e.g. to restrict/allow access in kafka (Non-REST interfaces)

• Working on rApp manager - lots to do there!

  • Plan to experiment with rApp packaging, onboarding, LCM

    • Reusing alot from ONAP ACM work

    • Extending rApp catalogue (Stub version in earlier releases)

    • Working on some options for rApp Package

• Making updates on it/dep charts for SMO/NonRTRIC/rApp-tests

  • Hope to demo next week!  @Aravindhan Ayyanathan 

• Preparing G Release

• Trying to consolidate a list of topics for H Release

• Preparing G release

• Trying to figure out what a combined O1/OFHMP NF would look like - esp different ways of using VES,some use netconf-notif vs ves,  different Yang models etc.

• Updated file-ready notification from simulator & handling in OAM.

• H Release

  • NODE-RED might be nicer than Camunda for showing what happens with VES-stdDefined

  • Switch to 3GPP rel 18 (currently rel 16)

  • Updates to O1 specs

  • Switch to Kafka native vs. DMaaP

• File-Ready notification

  • e.g. https://gerrit.o-ran-sc.org/r/c/oam/+/9827

  • Some sample PM files: https://gerrit.o-ran-sc.org/r/gitweb?p=sim/o1-interface.git;a=tree;f=ntsimulator/deploy/base/pm_files

  • Data Access - Training & Inference @SANDEEP KUMAR JAISAWAL @John Keeney (Ericsson EST)

    • Can probably use NONRTRIC ICS (as a DME)

      • ... but needs updates, will examine if bulk/datalake could be accessed?

    • What about data from near-RT-RICs to SMO/Training platform?

      • Currently O1 (PM or Trace) is the only way .. BUT discussions about a new Y1 interface might make analytics data from near-RT-RICs (or other RAN functions)

        • But in the meantime, lets just assume the data can get there.

    • Assist rApp: What about rApp-rApp communitions - Data must use R1-DME, Services must use R1-SME (with all necessary registration, & have an R1 types defined)

      • An rApp can have multiple uServices - but intra-rApp interaction does not need to use R1

  • LCM or ML-based rApps (or the ML-based uService inside an rApp)

    • Currently, ML model is wrapped in an image including the inference platform, then deployed using KServe (no Helm chart)

      • ... Not sure yet how to do this with ONAP ACM manager ... Maybe a new participant?)

  • Relationship AIHP in Non-RT-RIC might use NFO? Unclear still

  • @Martin Skorupski Upgrade parts of an rApp?

    • @John Keeney (Ericsson EST) ... maybe ... but easier to just stop, upgrade, restart

• No update this week

• No update this week

• None this week
