Thomas, I will join the call.
Sure, I can shortly summarize the current discussion.
I also believe there is no real need to have slides.

Maria Rita,
Will you be on the call in 45min? Can you provide us with a quick update on 
what was agreed upon? No slides needed I believe, unless you want to put some 
together quickly and present from your computer.
Thomas

Subject: RE: [6tisch] Adding CCA to the terminology draft

Thomas, all,

I have gone through the list of terms in the terminology draft, and I agree 
there are some terms that we MAY want to DELETE.

In particular:

a) terms specifying forwarding models, defined in the architecture draft, but 
never used afterward in any other draft. And moreover not in the current std. 
scope of 6TiSCH

- 6F: IPv6 Forwarding
- FF: 6LoWPAN Fragment Forwarding
- TF: Track Forwarding

[Pascal] agree to remove


b) confusing terms

- CDU matrix - concept related to chunk, but never used, and it created a lot 
of confusion in the group in the past. We can keep chunk, without the need of 
CDU

[Pascal] I’d keep that one, we have not really started the work related to it, 
may be useful


c) terms related to other RFCs, drafts, not 6TiSCH specific

- ARO
- DAR/DAC
- EAR
- NEAR

[Pascal] agree to remove


d) Generic Terms, not really needed for understanding 6TiSCH

- Communication Paradigm
- Interaction Model
- Interference Domain
- NME
- GMPLS
- MAC
- QoS

[Pascal] agree to remove

e) terms introduced but afterward not used anymore (such those related to the 
queue model)

- I-MUX module
- MUX module
- Operational network key

[Pascal] agree to remove


Moreover, we could also simply:

i) the definition of bundle, currently quite long, by keeping only the first 
part:

"A group of equivalent scheduled cells, i.e. cells identified by different 
[slotOffset, channelOffset], which are scheduled for a same purpose, with the 
same neighbor, with the same flags, and the same slotframe. The size of the 
bundle refers to the number of cells it contains. For a given slotframe length, 
the size of the bundle translates directly into bandwidth. A bundle represents 
a half-duplex link between nodes, one transmitter and one or more receivers, 
with bandwidth that amounts to the sum of the cells in the bundle."

[Pascal] The latter sentence is incorrect; like a schedule, a bundle is a local 
abstraction and it is not a concern of this node whether it is a sole sender or 
listenenr on it.
“ A bundle is a local abstraction that represents a half-duplex link for either 
sending or receiving, with bandwidth that amounts to the sum of the cells in 
the bundle."


ii) the current definition of deterministic network:

"A Deterministic Network supports traffic flows with communication patterns 
that are known a priori. Thus, routing paths and communication schedules can be 
computed in advance, in a fashion similar to a railway system, to avoid losses 
due to packet collisions, and to perform global optimizations across multiple 
flows.  A deterministic network can allocates the required resources (buffers, 
processors, medium access) along the multi-hop routing path at the precise 
moment the resources are needed."

with the following: " In the context of 6TiSCH, a network where the packet 
delivery rate, end-to-end latency and energy consumption of the nodes can be 
predicted."

[Pascal] We can never guarantee a PDR : ) I’d say that the generic concept is 
defined in https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-detnet-architecture and that 
with 6TiSCH it is implemented by reserving Tracks which guarantee an end to end 
latency and optimize the PDR for well-characterized flows


Finally, can someone in the 6TiSCH-security team provide some explenation of 
the "Operational Network" definition:

"A IEEE802.15.4e network whose encryption/authentication keys are determined by 
some algorithms/protocols. There may be network-wide group keys, or per-link 
keys."

It is not so clear the link between the term and its definition. Thanks.

Once the group agree in applying the proposed changes, I can update the draft 
accordingly.
Thank you.

Best Regards,
Maria Rita

Thanks Maria Rita for agreeing to add the term. Can I ask you to do the edit in 
the repo?

About last call, while I agree with the definitions in there, we MAY want to 
remove some, or at least do a sanity check. Maria Rita, could I ask you to go 
through the list and make some recommendations?

I think that we need to remember that in some cases CCA is necessary for 
minimal, such as shared slots, but also when there are multiple instances of 
6tisch being used by non-coordinated entities.

Regardless, "In the TSCH mode, backoff is calculated in shared links, so the 
CSMA-CA aUnitBackoffPeriod  is not used.”  The CCA mode may be enabled for TSCH 
by the TSCH-MODE.request where the TschMode may be enabled and also the TschCca 
may be enabled

Xavi,

sure, we can add CCA among the terms.

Pascal, about the last call for the terminology draft, I believe we can go for 
it.

Maybe we only need to check first if there are new terms coming from the 6P and 
SF0 drafts (but I doubt, because we checked already last time), or from the 
latest security related drafts (draft-vucinic-6tisch-minimal-security, and 
draft-richardson-6tisch-dtsecurity-secure-join).

@Malisa and Michael: do you see any term missing? you would like to add?

Thank you
Maria Rita

Subject: RE: [6tisch] Adding CCA to the terminology draft
That would be good.

Also: as discussed at the IETF meeting, we also need to trigger last call for 
the terminology draft, which will cause minimal to be held for publication 
otherwise.

Maria-Rita, do you think we are ready for that?

Take care,

Pascal

Subject: [6tisch] Adding CCA to the terminology draft

Dear Maria Rita,

I would like to suggest adding the following definition to the terminology 
draft so we can point to it from minimal.

CCA: Clear Channel Assessment. Mechanism defined in <xref 
target="IEEE802154-2015"/>, section 6.2.5.2. In a TSCH network, CCA can be used 
to detect other radio networks in vicinity. Nodes listen before sending to 
detect other ongoing transmissions. Because the network is synchronized, CCA 
cannot be used to detect colliding transmission within the same network.

let me know if this is possible.
thanks!
