Subjects to be commissioned.

6 slots in the programme left their subject to be set at commissioning. Each has a proposed subject from the programme’s own registry, and each can be changed. Propose a subject, or send evidence for a proposed one.

Open slots and their proposed subjects.

A proposed subject is not a finding and not a commitment. The desk that owns the slot confirms, changes or replaces it at commissioning.

SlotProposed subjectWhyState
XT-096G, AI-RAN and Next-Generation ConnectivityConnectivity is the layer under digital public infrastructure (SR-10) and cloud and edge computing (XT-08); the IMT-2030 (6G) standards path is dated, so the baseline can be set now.Proposed
XT-13Additive and Advanced ManufacturingAdvanced manufacturing links materials (XT-12), supply chains (SR-03) and robotics (XT-03); its dependencies on feedstock, power and qualified parts are physical and measurable.Proposed
XT-15Advanced Nuclear and Next-Generation FissionFirm low-carbon power for grids and compute (GS-02, XT-01, XT-06) is where advanced fission is tested; fusion has its own edition (XT-14).Proposed
XT-17Climate Technologies and Carbon ManagementCapture, transport, storage and removal are infrastructure that the climate edition (GS-07) and the energy edition (GS-02) depend on for their pathways.Proposed
XT-19Earth Observation and Geospatial IntelligenceThe technology of satellites, sensors, archives and navigation signals. It is distinct from the sector edition GS-12, which reads what observation tells us about the planet. The split is confirmed at commissioning.Proposed
XT-20Neurotechnology and Human–Machine InterfacesImplanted interfaces are a new class of hardware and a new source of personal data, beside AI (XT-01) and genomics (XT-05); health and rights couplings are the reason for a baseline.Proposed

How to propose a subject or contribute.

  1. Send a counter-proposal or a scoping note through the contribution form on this page, with the slot code, for example C-01 or XT-09, in the subject field.
  2. Say what the subject should cover, which country, sector or technology editions it would read across, and which open sources would carry its baseline.
  3. Evidence for the proposed subject is welcome now: a dataset release, an official statistic or a peer-reviewed paper, with its licence.
  4. The desk that owns the subject reviews every proposal at commissioning. The subject is confirmed, changed or replaced then, and the decision is listed in Releases and notices.

Reports is the Consortium’s quarterly publication, written by six desks. This page sits with the Standards Progress desk. What you know about this subject can become evidence, a case or a correction in the next edition, credited to you and published under CC BY 4.0 where it is your own work. Sent to the wrong desk, it is forwarded, not refused.
