Online, March 31, 2016 (Newswire.com) - WASHINGTON--The Wireless Innovation Forum (WInnF), a non-profit international industry association dedicated to driving the future of radio communications and systems worldwide, today announced approval of a new project, SCA 4.1 Compliance Criteria, led by Jimmy Marks of Raytheon (NYSE: RTN).
The #WInnForum today announced approval of a new project, SCA 4.1 Compliance Criteria
The new project, being undertaken by the WInnF's Coordinating Committee on International SCA Standards, is for software defined equipment, application developers and procurement agencies who need to establish a common interpretation of SCA 4.1 requirements and a common set of compliance criteria for the SCA 4.1 specification. It will provide prioritization, allocation and testability analysis of SCA 4.1 requirements, followed by establishing compliance criteria and verification methods that provide a common set of SCA 4.1 compliance criteria that will be accessible in the public domain as a standard Forum internationally generated and developed document. This project will not define a test harness or step by step verification procedures.
"The definition of compliance to Software Communications Architecture (SCA) 4.1 requirements is critical to the adoption and promulgation of SCA 4.1 as an international standard. The Joint Tactical Networking Center (JTNC) is very pleased to collaborate with the WInnF in the SCA 4.1 Compliance Project to define the SCA 4.1 Requirements Compliance Criteria. This project continues to build upon the collaborative effort between JTNC and WInnF in developing the SCA 4.1 specification," said Mr. William (Russ) Wygal, Director, JTNC.
The project kicked off during WInnComm 2016, held in Reston, Virginia, 15-17 March 2016, and is scheduled for completion April 2017. Project deliverables include:
- allocation of SCA 4.1 requirements to the operational environment (OE) of the equipment, application, or both (OE and application)
- definition of a priority for SCA 4.1 requirements to guide project compliance activities,
- compliance specification criteria for each requirement, and
- identification of proposed verification method(s) for each requirement (e.g. test, demonstration, analysis, inspection).
The Forum encourages participation from organizations wanting to be involved in this important project. Please contact Forum CEO Lee Pucker at Lee.Pucker@WirelessInnovation.org if you are interested.
Supported by platinum sponsors Google, Motorola Solutions, Finmeccanica and Thales, WInnForum has several working groups focusing on projects related to SCA and Spectrum Innovation.
