New ETSI White Paper: a Novel Cognitive Network for AI-driven Automation

 

The ETSI group on Experiential Networked Intelligence (ISG ENI) has just published a White Paper describing the design of a novel cognitive network. This White Paper explains how the ETSI ENI novel system architecture (based on ETSI GS ENI-005) intelligently manages, predicts, adjusts and optimises network behaviour using cognition management, thereby enhancing the operator experience.

“As technology becomes increasingly complex, managing telecommunication infrastructure grows in complexity. Operators need data-driven, context-aware tools to help them make the right decisions at the right time,” outlines Ray Forbes, Chair of the ETSI ISG ENI. “The ETSI ENI system is a set of hierarchical closed control loops based on extensions to the Observe-Orient-Decide-Act model. These extensions enable the ENI Cognitive Architecture to adapt its behaviour according to changes in user needs, business goals, and environmental conditions. As an example, the ENI system could reconfigure a set of 5G slices to meet changing service needs,” he adds. (...)
