To respond to the rapidly changing international standardization environment, TTA selects key technologies for ICT fields based on an analysis of the domestic and international technology standardization environment (top-down) and a survey on the demand for standards in the private sector (bottom-up), and annually establishes a standardization strategy map for suggesting domestic and international standardization promotion strategies and directions as a linked plan. For ICT Standardization Strategy Map Ver. 2016, 24 key technologies that require a strategic response to international standardization were selected for 6 ICT fields (ICT Convergence, Software/ Contents, Radio Wave/ Mobile Communications, Communications Network, Broadcasting/ Media and Information Security). The 24 key technologies were derived through a preliminary investigation and survey, such as an analysis of the key items of standardization organizations, domestic and international ICT policy trends, reports from domestic and international research labs/institutes, and promising technologies selected by key media and the press together with a demand survey for ICT items to be standardized. The selection was finalized through a review by the Standardization Advisory Group (Ministry of Science, ICT and Future Planning CPs—private R&D experts—by technology group). The development of the standardization strategy map for each key technology will be completed by October this year through a standardization planning team consisting of about 300 experts from industrial, academic and research sectors. Upon completion, the standardization strategy map will be utilized as a reference for the government's standardization policy making and standardization activities in the private sector.
