Scope

This page is the RASC entry for release K.

You find the O-RAN-SC project specific details as summary in the following page: K Release

Objectives

One of the main K Release objectives from ToC point of view are to show O-RAN-SC activities to the O-RAN Alliance during the O-RAN Face-to-Face meeting in Montreal from Oct28 to Nov01.

There for RASC is going to align and track related activities on this page.

Demonstrations

Format

From past O-RAN f2f meetings, there are generally two ways to show demos:

In special sessions with an audience in a conference room.
Continuous video loops displayed on a screen in the meeting area or event lobby.

For both types of presentations, it's useful to make a video of your demo with voice. It's best to highlight the main functions and features and keep it concise.

These videos not only work for the second type of presentation but also serve as a backup for live audience sessions. Additionally, the videos can be used as references in project wikis and to document achievements for specific topics or releases.

When presenting to an audience, you typically have three options:

A live demo - This often requires remote access to an integration lab. While event hosts usually provide this, there can be last-minute issues with remote connectivity, even during the presentation.
Play the demo video and do a live voiceover. This approach is less risky but still offers a genuine and interactive experience.
Play the demo video with a pre-recorded voiceover.

Feel free to choose any of these options as they are all viable and effective.
