AES70-2015 AES standard for audio applications of networks - Open Control Architecture, has been published in three parts.
AES70 defines a scalable control-protocol architecture for professional media networks. AES70 addresses device control and monitoring only; it does not define standards for streaming media transport. However, the Open Control Architecture (OCA) is intended to cooperate with various media transport architectures.
Part 1: Framework describes the models and mechanisms of the AES70 Open Control Architecture. These models and mechanisms together form the AES70 Framework. This document should be read together with Part 2, Class Structure and Part 3, TCP/IP communications protocol.
Part 2: Class structure specifies the control class structure for AES70 that defines the AES70's control and monitoring functional capabilities and should be read in conjunction with Part 1, Framework, and Part 3, TCP/IP communications protocol.
Part 3: Protocol for TCP/IP Networks specifies a protocol implementation for TCP/IP networks. It should be read in conjunction with Part 1, Framework, and Part 2, Class Tree.

The standard AES67-2015, a revision of AES67-2013, specifies methods for high-performance streaming audio-over-IP network interoperability.
This report summarizes the AES67 interoperability test event ("plugfest") held at the headquarters of National Public Radio (NPR), Washington DC on 2 to 5 November 2015. Eleven companies tested 13 products against each other to confirm interoperability. The results are presented, together with the results of a range of tests of optional operational modes described in the standard.
The purpose of this interoperability test was to demonstrate functional compatibility - interoperability - between a number of different implementations of the standard AES67-2015, "AES standard for audio applications of networks - High-performance streaming audio-over-IP interoperability". They were not intended to be exhaustive compliance tests.
This report follows the same pattern as the AES-R12 report of the 2014 AES67 plugfest, held in Munich.
