Subject: [ieee-ietf-coord] FW: New Non-WG Mailing List: 6tsch -- Discuss link layer model for Deterministic IPv6 over the TSCH mode of IEEE 802.15.4e, and impacts on RPL and 6LoWPAN such as resource allocation

Hi,

Please note the formation of the non-WG list which will discuss a link layer model for Deterministic IPv6 over the TSCH mode of IEEE 802.15.4e. The AD supervising this list is Ralph Droms. His assessment is that at this phase there is no need to create a new item on the shared issues list, but we need to watch the activity and participate in the discussions if interested to contribute. 

Regards,

Dan

> Purpose: This list is for discussions relating to the development, clarification, and implementation of IPv6 access and meshing over deterministic (scheduled) MAC with specific interest in IEEE 802.15.4e TSCH. Focus is on issues related with time slots awareness at L3, time slots allocation and distribution, and the eventual mix of centralized and distributed operation for routing and resource allocation. The list should facilitate exchanges between opensource implementers, share on the applicability of the technology and address the gaps in existing IETF specs from RPL and 6LoWPAN. This list may steer work at the IETF, as well as IEC and ISA. One of the goals for the group, should we create one, would be to put together an IETF straw man binding existing standards (RPL, 6LoWPAN, PANA, ForCES/OpenFlow, diffserv) over 802.15.4e.
