Abstract
In the fast changing world of telecommunications, apparently dominated by dynamic downloads of Over The Top applications, one may wonder if standardization still has a role to play. After studying this question and concluding in a positive way, this section provides an overview of who are the active standards bodies and highlights their main "products", such as the Next Generation Network on the fixed side for ETSI TISPAN or 3GPP Release 5 and later for the mobile side. Some explanations are also given on how these bodies work together - or sometimes against each other.
