Korea has moved to secure global technological leadership by leading international standard development in cloud computing.
The National Radio Research Agency of the Ministry of Science and ICT said on the 31st that at the 33rd international standardization meeting of "Cloud Computing and Distributed Platforms (ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 38)," held in Jeju on the 23rd to the 27th, new standard development proposed by Korea was approved.
At this meeting, more than 50 experts from over 10 countries, including Korea Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI), Cloud Computing Research Consortium, Microsoft (MS), Oracle and IBM, competed for next-generation technology leadership.
The standard proposed by Korea is intended to systematically explain how artificial intelligence (AI) systems are configured and operated in a cloud computing environment, defining the relationships among AI applications, systems and components and presenting a foundation to efficiently implement AI services that require large-scale data and computation on the cloud.
It also presented guidance on how to allocate and utilize large-scale workloads generated during AI model training in the cloud environment.
In addition, the meeting began discussions on new standards such as purpose-specific cloud computing and cloud for implementing the Metaverse.
Jeong Chang-rim, head of the National Radio Research Agency, said, "We will develop standards that provide practical help to our corporations and strengthen competitiveness in the global market."
