We decided to take out the temporal aspects from the generic architecture and move it into the Connection Service discussion. The reason being that the NSI protocol message exchanges did not require a time synchronization. They mostly depend on state machines and relative timing.

Hi all,

I could not hear the later part of the previous session clearly, so
maybe I miss the point, but:

- if request path is hierarchical, service instances also have
hierarchical relationship. That is, a service instance is created for
each provider along the path.

- temporal aspects may exist not only for the connection service but
also for other (to be defined) services.
