Regulation, policy and user behaviour analysis for telecommunications networks and services

摘要

Telecommunications engineering and its economic and business aspects are the research focus of many researchers worldwide. As the mobile market has reached saturation especially in Europe and fiber-to-the-home developments are still late, the analysis of telecommunications networks and services necessitates the mix of regulation, policy and user analysis from a techno-economic point of view. This special issue aims to support the research in these directions by accommodating original contributions from researchers working in technoeconomics and participating in the Conferences on Telecommunication Techno-Economics. The contributions of this special issue span user behaviour analysis to regulation and have been written from engineers and economists, underlying the interdisciplinary and multifaceted character of the telecommunication technoeconomics.
