About this book

Telecommunications Modeling, Policy, and Technology Examines the newer and emerging models of telecommunications technology that play instrumental roles in providing international economic and societal interconnectivity. Advancing technology in the field imposes the need to develop new models to solve complex planning and decision making problems. The global, national, and local societal impact of the technology necessitates careful analysis of telecommunications policy at all of these levels. The book explores natural output of the new technical developments and applications with selective chapter treatment on novel business models to fill the emerging technical and business needs.

Reviews

From the reviews:

“This nice book provides a collection of edited contributions from the Ninth INFORMS Telecommunication Conference held in spring 2008. … Indeed, the reader can find in a unique source several highlights on a broad range of problems and approaches on telecommunications at wide. … This is certainly a book for the library of your department, but it can also find an adequate placing on the shelf of … the researchers of the telecommunication group of your institution.” (M. Dell'Amico, Journal of the Operational Research Society, Vol. 62, 2011)
