What Is A2A-T, Really? A Source-Code-Based Breakdown of OpenAN
OpenAN hosts the only readable implementation of a telecom-grade multi-agent protocol. After reading the registry-center and SDK source, the key finding: A2A-T is not a new protocol but a telecom extension set on standard A2A — a conclusion that directly affects where to standardize what.
The Task-Driven Agent Internet: Re-framing the Network Role and the Critical Path
The Internet's principal is shifting from human clicks to task execution — not a rise in traffic volume but a change in what the network carries. An agent performing the same task generates roughly 450% more network traffic than a human, about 70% of it model-inference traffic, with uplink share abnormally rising to 9%. The report reframes the network from a bit pipe into a 'task nervous system', and argues the urgent gap is not capacity but three foundational capabilities: identity, discovery and assurance.
What Is the Agent Internet? A Network Perspective on AI Agent Interconnection
When agents evolve from "tools" into "network endpoints", what must the Internet prepare for them? A plain-language introduction to the motivation, key problems and standardization progress of the Agent Internet.
