Alex,
let me select cloud computing.
It is a marketing term that does not immediately relate to any specific
technology as such. When you look at some service offerings that claim
to offer cloud computing functionality then you will see that it is
mostly Web-related stuff. So, all the good stuff the IETF had done on
HTTP, TLS, TCP, OAuth, etc. is relevant.
Having said that there will be other folks who have a different
understanding of cloud computing and then other IETF protocols will be
relevant.
So, it really depends what you have in mind (which is also what Alper
asks).
The IAB regularly gets similar questions in liaison statements from the
ITU-T, and similiar organizations and we are in general a hard time to
answer them.
Ciao

Hello IETFers,
I am trying to identify where at IETF are works related to cloud
computing, small cells, base stations?
Cloud Computing:
http://ogf.org/
OGF, as I recall, started a group of high-energy physics people who wanted
computing, but felt that the IETF didn't need to participate. I recall they
came to a meeting and basically said, "do you mind if we use RFC2026 and your
formats in another body", and they went and did that.
Small Cells:
layer one/two issue.
We do layer three :-)
Implications of small cells on IETF protocols is what we can discuss in relevant WGs.
Alex, do you have specific items in mind?
Alper
Base stations:
layer two issue.
You shouldn't assume that the IETF does everything.
The IETF is not the SDO to rule them all...
