We are thrilled to announce that ETSI TC INT has approved the final version of TR 104 074, titled “Methodologies for Testing & Validation of Network Application-based Services over 5G Networks.” This pivotal document is now set for publication.
TR 104 074 stems from the innovative efforts of WP5 within the 5G-IANA project, showcasing how EU-funded initiatives can significantly influence international standardization. With its publication, the comprehensive validation methodology developed, implemented, and rigorously tested within 5G-IANA will be accessible to all professionals engaged in the cutting-edge field of Network Applications.
In parallel, ETSI has initiated a new work item for version 2 of TR 104 074, which will incorporate findings from the Horizon Europe project PoDIUM. This approach ensures that TR 104 074 remains a dynamic, evolving document, continually updated with the latest methodologies from EU-funded projects. The ultimate goal is to establish a unified, globally applicable methodology that can eventually be published as a technical specification, serving as a normative reference for Network Applications worldwide.
