The document summarizes IDC's predictions for the top 10 trends that will impact the telecommunications industry across Asia Pacific (excluding Japan) in 2007. Some of the key trends predicted include an increase in Ethernet services, the emergence of wireless mesh networks, the growth of mobile WiMAX networks, the development of fixed-mobile convergence services, and the evolution of instant messaging into a collaborative mobile business tool. The telecom market in the region is also expected to experience strong growth driven by services such as VoIP, broadband, and 3G.
This is the paper that started it all. An early thought piece discussing the widening profitability gap for mobile network operators and positing a disruptive architectural response. Originally branded "Adaptive Backhaul", the concept already had most of the ingredients now found in the Mobile Edge Cloud: content caching, application hosting and acceleration deeply distributed in the radio access network. These ideas have been developed by innovative startups such as Saguna Networks and have formed the basis of important new offerings from Tier 1 network equipment vendors, such as NSN's Liquid Applications.
2019 marks the beginning of a new era of mobile connectivity with 5G launches imminent in many markets worldwide. Here are some of the major implications of the arrival of the new technology for the year ahead.

This document is a “distilled” version of the much larger report that Analysys Mason and IAMAI have prepared. The detailed report is available for purchase on IAMAI’s website – www.iamai.in and is an in-depth guide to each of the specific sub-segments within the mobile value added services ecosystem.
This summarised version of the report covers the following areas: The Indian mobile VAS opportunity, policy and market enablers, key trends in the mobile VAS industry in India, key growth areas in services and applications and mobile VAS industry growth forecasts
The key takeaways from this report summary are as follows:
• The Indian non-voice market is at an inflexion point, and the growth opportunity remains significant
• Similar to other mobile-first markets, mobile internet (handset plus dongles / CCDs) will drive growth in non-voice revenues while traditional services stabilize
• However, various market and policy enablers are required in on-deck VAS, off-deck VAS and SMS channels to realize this growth opportunity
• From a market perspective, a self-regulating body for settling issues between market participants can be an effective way to address on-deck challenges
• From a policy perspective, we believe that following a model of market determined revenue share with no special VAS license is the best route
• We recommend establishing an agency under the direction of TRAI to help address off-deck adoption issues and facilitate the allocation and management of a central short code registry system
• It is also recommended that a common standard for local language characters should be mandated on all handsets sold in India to facilitate growth in SMS
• Resolution of above issues also becomes imperative for maintaining market efficiency and balance of power in the evolving VAS value chain
• Among the emerging services, we believe that mobile commerce and utility services will have a significant social impact
• Finally, we believe that mobile internet adoption will result in a proliferation of data enabled services and applications around video, advertising, community, entertainment and enterprise mobility

Maken in de Bibliotheek, presentatie bij Platform voor medezeggenschap in de ...Fers
Vanuit het Platform voor medezeggenschap in de bibliotheekwereld wordt ieder jaar begin april een tweedaagse bijeenkomst over thema’s die de medezeggenschap bezig houden georganiseerd. De laatste jaren komt de toekomst van de bibliotheek daar telkens aan de orde. Het afgelopen jaar werden weer veel ondernemingsraden geconfronteerd met zware bezuinigingen met als gevolg een ingrijpende reorganisatie en ontslagen. In veel plannen wordt dan gesproken over de grote veranderingen die noodzakelijk zijn en die ingrijpende maatregelen nodig maken. De vraag waar een ondernemingsraad dan o.a. voor komt te staan is of die veranderingen de ingrijpende maatregelen rechtvaardigen. Of wel, ‘waar doen we het allemaal voor?’ Voor de medezeggenschap blijft dat veelal erg onduidelijk. Hoe ziet die nieuwe bibliotheek er straks dan uit en hoe ziet ons werk er dan uit? Hierover mocht ik voor de deelnemers van de studiedagen een inleiding verzorgen.

Data Science Popup Austin: Surfing Silver Dynamic Bayesian Forecasting for Fu...Domino Data Lab
Watch the talk ➟ http://bit.ly/1NJGRcb
2008 was a historic year in many ways, perhaps the most prominent being the election of the first African American president. But 2008 also saw an unlikely hero emerge amongst the record setting presidential race... Nate Silver and his astonishingly accurate prediction of its results. More important than Nate's remarkable result however was the attention it drew to the potential of data and the importance of uncertainty (through bayesian statistics). And it was in that moment that our modern incarnation of data journalism was born (though ironically the field dates back to an attempt to predict the 1952 presidential election) with Nate's (now famous) 538 blog.
In this talk I will walk through the approach that made Nate so successful in 2008, test its efficacy in predicting the early 2016 primary results, and show how these (relatively) simple concepts can be applied in novel ways to tangential fields to great effect (for fun and profit) by estimating the time to failure for industrial machines in our connected world of the IoT.

Reducing the cost per gigabyte - a 3d b consult white paperToomas Sarv
As mobile data usage is growing rapidly each year, and is expected to grow even more aggressively by 2020, the price per Gigabyte for the subscriber is reducing over time across all markets... At the same time, it is increasingly challenging for operators to find monetization schemes for their LTE networks that are in correlation with traffic growth and price drops in one formula. Their own cost of Gigabyte is not decreasing at the same pace as the price per Gigabyte for their subscribers.
Wi-Fi Driving Mobile Internet Explosion in Next Generation NetworksGreen Packet
The proliferation of Wi-Fi enabled devices and growth in Wi-Fi hotspot deployment is predicted to rise 350% by 2015 and it is necessary for operators to innovate quickly to an ecosystem of scalable, integrated, efficient network to drive customers experience; offload busy mobile broadband networks; and provide a value-added services platform.
Operators are turning customer centric strategies to pragmatic practice. Universally, operators have expressed strong interest to derive revenues beyond connectivity. The vision of broadband has allowed juggling a mix between cost, revenue, intelligence and performance. In this paper, the study of Wi-Fi explores the potential of new generation of services, connected devices value chain and growth opportunities from emerging embedded systems that is worthwhile investing strategically.
Shift of connectedness is key component in bringing new services to market, closing the gap on disparate radio technologies onto integrated delivery platform for smart monetization of new service models and simplifying the Wi-Fi experience altogether.
Impact of covid 19 on sectors in India - Pinnacle DigitalAnuj Tanwar
Industry: Telecom and Technology
Impact: Low
Recovery Period: Short
Future : Promising
Telcom sector saw a huge spike in data traffic and consumption. The growth rate of traffic since mid March, 2020 is the highest in the last 12 months. Mobile data traffic, too, rebounded after declining for 10 straight months, the data showed.
Cloud computing, along with mobility increasing percolation of broadband, is aiding the creation of a networked society. Moving towards a digitally connected world, telecom operators have a unique opportunity to position themselves and capitalise the growth of cloud services – both as service providers and adopters of the technology.
Service providers including telcos, mobile network operators (MNOs), mobile virtual network operators (MVNOs), Internet service providers (ISPs) and even Web hosts are finding it more difficult to increase or even just maintain their average revenue per user (ARPU) as fixed
and mobile voice revenues decline and data usage increases exponentially.
This white paper looks at some of the challenges facing service providers and the opportunities that mobile Cloud computing offers to mitigate these challenges.
The paper then reviews some recent innovative mobile Cloud offerings from service providers.

Evolving Networks, Evolving Models -- IDC Predicts
Top 10 Most Impactful Telecommunications Trends
across Asia/Pacific (excluding Japan) in 2007
Singapore and Hong Kong, January 18, 2007 –
According to IDC's Asia/Pacific (Excluding Japan)
Telecommunications 2007 Top 10 Predictions, Doc
#AP2012S1N, 2007 will be a period of evolution, and
network and IT equipment will shift its focus from
hardware to a greater emphasis on software and
services.
"The telecommunications industry in APEJ is facing
a period of evolution, as lines between traditional
2. network architectures and services disappear,
spurred by developments in technology and end-user
usage patterns and demand. From convergence to
shifting go-to-market strategies, both equipment
vendors and telcos will need to better position
themselves for the coming change," says Sandra Ng,
Vice President for IDC's Asia/Pacific
Communications, Peripherals, and Services research.
The Asia/Pacific (excluding Japan) telecom services
market was worth over US$183 billion in 2006 and is
projected to achieve 10% growth to exceed US$202
billion in 2007. Growth will continue to come from
VoIP, Broadband, IP Services and 3G Services. In
addition, the networking equipment market,
estimated at over US$7.2 billion in 2006, is
expected to grow to over US$8 billion in 2007.
Drawing from the latest IDC research and internal
brainstorming sessions among IDC's global, regional
3. and country telecommunications and network
analysts, the following represents IDC's high-level
look at trends, vendor and service provider
strategies, as well as new technologies that will
emerge and impact the industry and its players in
2007.
IDC's Top 10 Predictions for the
Telecommunications Market in APEJ for 2007:
1. Increase in Layer 2 Ethernet services
Telecommunication service providers in APEJ have
been active in rolling out optical fiber-based
metro Ethernet services in most major cities across
the region for the past few years. While these
services were previously confined to mature markets
such as Hong Kong, Korea and Singapore, they are
now available in most major cities from Bombay in
4. the west to Jakarta in the east. IDC expects most,
if not all, major carriers in APEJ to start
offering point-to-point metro Ethernet services in
2007 and that the service will gain considerable
traction in the market by the end of the year.
2. Services get caught in the wireless mesh
After much hype, 2007 will be the year where
wireless mesh services will emerge in Asia. IDC
believes this will occur because of its potential
for large-scale wireless deployments, strong
support from governments and the availability of
blueprints from visible mesh deployments in North
America, and to a lesser extent in Europe.
3. Building the WiMAX highway for greater
connectivity
5. IDC believes that many larger WiMAX vendors will
offer advanced antenna solutions in 2007 to achieve
greater spectral efficiencies compared to
alternative wireless technologies. The combination
of IP-friendly interfaces, VoIP streaming, cost
performance advantages, and the scalability of
mobile WiMAX has already encouraged multiple trial
deployments in the region. Going forward, IDC
expects that ultimately mobile WiMAX will become
the mainstay of licensed BWA across APEJ in the
long-term.
4. Fixed-mobile convergence (FMC) enables
mass-market consumer mobility
The move to consumer FMC is occurring in the APEJ
region, with multiple operators looking at
strategies to leverage its development. After
6. several years of discussion, technologies and
products relating to FMC have progressed to the
stage where initial deployments, either on a trial
or commercial basis, are likely to be offered in
2007. This shift to FMC is going to trigger
restructuring and changes in the business models as
well as network infrastructure of carriers. While
FMC will threaten some legacy services, it will
also create new opportunities for fixed and mobile
carriers to compete in each other's space.
5. IM evolves as the next collaborative tool
in mobile business communication
The business world is increasingly focused on
collaboration, which is challenging given the need
to coordinate among coworkers who may be spread
across different cities or even continents. Mobile
IM provides a superior messaging alternative for
fast and cost-effective communication, particularly
7. when the workforce is dispersed in remote
locations, where workers may not have access to
their corporate intranet over LAN. IDC expects
prosumers or professional consumers to drive
enterprises to deploy IM solutions initially and IM
will progressively evolve from being a standalone
product to a communication product that is well
integrated with other business applications.
6. Application-aware networking will grow in
the enterprise
Application-aware networking is defined as
solutions that make intelligent routing, security,
and delivery decisions regarding network traffic. A
key priority among these products is the need to
provide a secure and reliable architecture for
enterprise applications, Web applications, or
applications that run over TCP/IP. Traditionally,
whenever latency issues arose over the WAN, the
8. immediate solution among enterprises was to
purchase more bandwidth, increasing the capacity of
its pipe. However, the market has realized that
increasing bandwidth alone may not necessarily
solve latency issues experienced in a WAN.
Application-aware networking can be used to
alleviate this issue. 2007 will be an significant
year for application-aware networking as most
vendors have settled down after the acquisition
frenzy and have formulated aggressive strategies to
acquire new customers.
7. Network Equipment Providers refine
tradition channel distribution model by
going direct
Traditionally, network equipment providers (NEPs)
have built up and utilized an ecosystem of channel
9. partners to distribute their products to
enterprises. While this model has served remarkably
well in the past, IDC believes that it will evolve
in 2007. While differentiation and innovation
continue to be key and indispensable in staying
ahead of the game, NEPs are looking into expanding
their service offerings as a means of
distinguishing themselves from competitors. IDC
predicts that direct sales, especially for larger
or tier 1 accounts, will become strategically more
important for NEPs.
8. Mobile TV to become a reality in key
markets in the region
While mobile TV service has been available in APEJ
since 2005, service providers in the region have
shown mixed interest in the service, although this
may change soon. As ARPUs continue to drop
throughout the region, service providers are
10. searching for new revenue streams and many believe
they will find it in mobile TV. In 2007, IDC
believes that many service providers will trial and
commercially launch the service in the more
developed markets of APEJ.
9. Peer to peer services threatens growth
and development of IPTV
In the APEJ region, multiple service providers have
placed an increasing emphasis on the potential of
IPTV. In 2007, activity surrounding IPTV is set to
remain strong, both among service providers and
among the vendor community. However, the emergence
of P2P services that re-broadcast signals from
cable or IPTV networks over the Internet needs
attention. These P2P services presently originate
mainly from China, with increasing usage in the
region . Starting in 2007, IPTV operators in APEJ
and around the world will need to closely watch the
11. development of these services in a bid to mitigate
this threat.
10. Web 2.0 presents new opportunities and
new challenges
The APEJ region has some of the most advanced, and
connected, telecommunications populations in the
world. While developments in FMC continue, other
applications and solutions are being developed to
provide a richer experience to end-users. Among
these, applications associated with Web 2.0 are
gaining traction in the region. Web 2.0 generally
refers to new applications and processes of using
the Internet to increase collaboration and
interaction among end-users via the Web platform.
IDC expects 2007 to be a year when their popularity
will push service providers to develop strategies
to harness the development, both within the
enterprise and among consumers.
