ISO TC 104 Freight Containers
Summary • Radio regulations beginning to converge • Still too many organizations developing standards for • RFID (SC 31/WG 4, ITU-T SG 16, SC 6, NFC, EPCglobal) • Sensors (SC 31/WG 6 & IEEE, SGSN) • Data structures (SC 31/WG 4, SC 31/WG 6, ITU-T SG 16 • Resolving duplicate efforts cannot be accomplished by a third party but cooperatively between JTC 1 and ITU-T. • Hopefully, discussions between JTC 1 & ITU-T will commence in February 2010 (Chairs Meeting). Cooperation is measured not by the number of times we agree, but more so by the number of times we resolve those issues where we disagree.

Telecommunication Standardization Advisory Group (TSAG) TSAG reviews priorities, programmes, operations, financial matters and strategies for the Sector, follows up on the accomplishment of the work programme, restructures and establishes ITU-T Study Groups, provides guidelines to the Study Groups, advises the Director of TSB, elaborates A-series Recommendations on organization and working procedures. The standardization work of ITU-T is carried out by the technical Study Groups(SGs) in which representatives of the ITU-T membership develop Recommendations (standards) for the various fields of international telecommunications. The SGs drive their work primarily in the form of study Questions. Each of these addresses technical studies in a particular area of telecommunication standardization. Each SG has a SG Chairman and a number of vice-chairmen appointed by the World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA).
