CriteriaResult / Proof point 
Identification

What is the human-readable name of the project?

yes

O-RAN SC's Near-RT RIC

RT = realtime

RIC = RAN intelligent controller

RAN = Radio Access Network

O-RAN = Open RAN

SC = software community

What is a brief description of the project?

yesThe near-RT RIC Platform is a software based near‐real‐time micro‐service‐based platform for hosting micro-service-based applications - the xApps - that run on the near-RT RIC platform. xApps are not part of the RIC platform and developed in projects that are separate from the near-RT RIC platform project. The near-RT RIC platform is providing xApps the infrastructure for controlling a distributed collection of RAN base stations (eNB, gNB, CU, DU) in a region via the O-RAN alliance's E2 protocol ("southbound"). (quote from Scope of the near-RT RIC platform and its components (summary))

What is the URL for the project (as a whole)?

yesNear Realtime RAN Intelligent Controller (RIC)

What is the URL for the version control repository (it may be the same as the project URL)?

yes

Multiple repositories in Linux Foundation Gerrit: https://gerrit.o-ran-sc.org/r/admin/repos/
