What is the purpose with the Board of governors?
The Board of Governors is the highest decision-making body in the
organization and sets out the guidelines for its work. The Governors
are the CEOs of the collaborating organizations.
What is the purpose with
the Executive Committee?
The Executive Committee is responsible for monitoring the progress
of the work through continuous updates of agreed specifications
for the common Nordic platform for digital television.
The Executive Committee is empowered to appoint subcommittees to
help it in its work. The Executive Committee may also engage personnel
to conduct studies, etc., within the bounds of the plan of action
and the budgetary framework laid down by the Board of Governors.
An important aspect of the cooperation is the development of expertise
within the participating organizations, as well
. Up
What is the purpose with the
Technical Subcommittee?
The Technical Subcommittee shall monitor and contribute to international
work on specifications in this area in fora like DVB,
DAVIC and DigiTAG. The Technical Subcommittee
shall elaborate Nordic specifications for the IRD box, a common
CA system, and a common API.
All specifications will be discussed and agreed in plenum in the
Technical Subcommittee, where consensus will be sought. When issues
need special expertise and/or in-depth work specific projects or
sub-groups will be established. Up
Why does NorDig have an API sub
group?
An API sub group is needed to analyse DVB MHP API issues for the
NorDig specifications and to propose/coordinate NorDig inputs
to DVB/TAM Up
Why does NorDig have a Verification
test sub group?
The sub group is needed to overview and expand verification test
specifications and test procedures for NorDig, suited for self-test
by industry. Up
Why does NorDig have a Rules of
Operation sub group?
The "Rules of Operation" subgroup shall define a minimum
set of Rules of Operation which are necessary - in addition to other
applicable specifications - to ensure the required interoperability
of services and IRD functionality in primary and secondary networks
within NorDig. (Primary network: networks fed directly from content
provider. Secondary network: networks redistributing signals from
primary networks). Up
Why does NorDig have an IP sub group?
The IP sub group is needed both to monitor work done in other bodies
(including DVB and IETF) and the availability of existing standards,
and to establish minimum NorDig requirements for an IRD front-end
for IP-based networks. Up
