ITRF2008: an improved solution of the international terrestrial reference frame
TL;DR: ITRF2008 as mentioned in this paper is a refined version of the International Terrestrial Reference Frame based on reprocessed solutions of the four space geodetic techniques: VLBI, SLR, GPS and DORIS, spanning 29, 26, 12.5 and 16 years of observations, respectively.

ITRF2005 : A new release of the International Terrestrial Reference Frame based on time series of station positions and Earth Orientation Parameters
TL;DR: Altamimi et al. as mentioned in this paper used time series of station positions and daily Earth Orientation Parameters (EOPs) of the International Terrestrial Reference Frame (ITRF) to monitor station nonlinear motion and discontinuities and examine the temporal behavior of the frame physical parameters, namely the origin and the scale.
