This ITSF 2016 presentation from Djamila Duc looks into field-testing to prove the feasibility and performance of small cells and IP RAN as well as the solutions being developed. A major mobile operator in the Middle East is rapidly deploying this technology and is trying optimize the solution by distributing frequency over high-bit-rate digital subscriber line (HDSL) and IP.
However, reducing the high level of packet delay variation that affects quality is a big challenge. As it is impossible to use SyncE, deep field-testing of Precision Time Protocol over HDSL is required. The adopted solution is a combination that covers the frequency needs for legacy time-division multiplexing and the phase needs for future long-term evolution deployments.

BELTUG_competition study with notes_websasvangent32
Danielle Jacobs highlighted the results of BELTUG’s own research into the current situation of the business market, clearly demonstrating there is insufficient competition. “Often, organisations do not get more than one or two responses to their RFPs. There is also limited vendor switching,” she explained. “An important shift is necessary. International and national authorities need to consider businesses as a separate market with its own needs. More and more companies are looking for service providers to help them with increased complexity. Integrators (will) have 'preferred' suppliers. Often Belgacom will be one of these. BELTUG fears that there is an increased risk of dependency on Belgacom."
Telecom revenues are declining.
Till now, Data revenues have been critical for Telcos which have successfully followed a “walled garden” approach. But the "walled gardens" are fast eroding under threat from integrated players like Google and Apple, and the telco revenues are fast declining.
This presentation presents strategies a Telco to counter this emerging threat from different types of online players and increase or at least retain a share of data revenues.

Data Centers - Striving Within A Narrow Range - Research Report - MCG - May 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) expects to see demand and the changing evolution of supply, facilitated through institutional investment rotation out of offices and into work from home (“WFH”), while the ever-expanding need for data storage as global internet usage expands, with experts predicting 5.3 billion users by 2023. These market factors will be underpinned by technological changes, such as progressing cloud services and edge sites, allowing the industry to see strong expected annual growth of 13% over the next 4 years.
Whilst competitive headwinds remain, represented through the recent second bankruptcy filing of Sungard, which blames “COVID-19 and other macroeconomic trends including delayed customer spending decisions, insourcing and reductions in IT spending, energy inflation and reduction in demand for certain services”, the industry has seen key adjustments, where MCG believes that engineering cost management and technological innovation will be paramount to success.
MCG reports that the more favorable market conditions expected over the next few years, helped by the winding down of pandemic restrictions and a hybrid working environment will be driving market momentum forward. The continuous injection of capital by alternative investment firms, as well as the growing infrastructural investment from cloud service providers and social media companies, whose revenues are expected to grow over 3.6x larger by value in 2026, will likely help propel center provision and innovation. These factors paint a promising picture for the industry players that offset rising input costs and adapt to new technologies.
According to M Capital Group: “Specifically, the long-term cost-saving opportunities available from the rise of remote managing will likely aid value growth for the industry. Through margin optimization and further availability of capital for reinvestment, strong players will maintain their competitive foothold, while weaker players exit the market to balance supply and demand.”
Levelwise PageRank with Loop-Based Dead End Handling Strategy : SHORT REPORT ...Subhajit Sahu
Abstract — Levelwise PageRank is an alternative method of PageRank computation which decomposes the input graph into a directed acyclic block-graph of strongly connected components, and processes them in topological order, one level at a time. This enables calculation for ranks in a distributed fashion without per-iteration communication, unlike the standard method where all vertices are processed in each iteration. It however comes with a precondition of the absence of dead ends in the input graph. Here, the native non-distributed performance of Levelwise PageRank was compared against Monolithic PageRank on a CPU as well as a GPU. To ensure a fair comparison, Monolithic PageRank was also performed on a graph where vertices were split by components. Results indicate that Levelwise PageRank is about as fast as Monolithic PageRank on the CPU, but quite a bit slower on the GPU. Slowdown on the GPU is likely caused by a large submission of small workloads, and expected to be non-issue when the computation is performed on massive graphs.

Techniques to optimize the pagerank algorithm usually fall in two categories. One is to try reducing the work per iteration, and the other is to try reducing the number of iterations. These goals are often at odds with one another. Skipping computation on vertices which have already converged has the potential to save iteration time. Skipping in-identical vertices, with the same in-links, helps reduce duplicate computations and thus could help reduce iteration time. Road networks often have chains which can be short-circuited before pagerank computation to improve performance. Final ranks of chain nodes can be easily calculated. This could reduce both the iteration time, and the number of iterations. If a graph has no dangling nodes, pagerank of each strongly connected component can be computed in topological order. This could help reduce the iteration time, no. of iterations, and also enable multi-iteration concurrency in pagerank computation. The combination of all of the above methods is the STICD algorithm. [sticd] For dynamic graphs, unchanged components whose ranks are unaffected can be skipped altogether.

Vision and Mission Statements:
Vision statement:
We will be the communications leader in an increasingly
connected world.
Mission statement:
Connecting and empowering people and communities,
accelerating the development of Egypt.
Evaluation: Vodafone's mission statement is too short,
lacks a lot of components (technology, concern for
employees, public image, etcetera), and relatively
inconvenient.
6. 6
Mission Statement Evaluation:
Suggested mission statement:
Vodafone is proudly leading the telecommunication
industry in Egypt with the highest market share and
millions of subscribers. We manage to use the latest
technologies in our business to offer the highest service
quality available, for meeting the trust of our customers.
At Vodafone, we believe in connecting and empowering
people and communities, that includes our clients,
employees, stakeholders, government, in addition to
supporting the non government/profit initiatives.

S.W.O.T Analysis:
Strengths: Vodafone's major strength point does exist in
their market share, which is the biggest among other
competitors; that reflects a stable and strong financial
performance through many consecutive years.
Weaknesses: the marketing department at Vodafone
may be strongly responsible for the company's points of
weakness, which are their less innovative offers and to
their annoying sales efforts on both calls and messages.
Opportunities: Egyptian internet companies in 2016 still
offers a 512 kb/s internet speed accompanied by a poor
service. Also, there is a growing use of technology and
internet in Egypt, both represent a great opportunity for
Vodafone to strongly compete in that market.
Threats: nearly no one out there in Egypt doesn't have a
single cell phone with an active network, if not two or
more, that's the big threat: market saturation. Also, the
governmental restrictions is a big threat too, especially
with the unstable political and economical atmosphere.

Comments:
As noticed from both IFE and EFE matrices, Vodafone is
dealing relatively good with its internal/external factors,
with overall scores of 3.05 and 2.75 respectively, they
remain over the 2.5 average.
Obviously, Vodafone is managing the core better than
the crust. A little look at the company's history, you’ll
notice that since 2007, there has been an absence in the
big strategic moves like partnerships and acquisitions,
Vodafone paid a greater attention to strengthen the
internal issues, and successfully managed to do that.
Well, will not state the opposite about managing the
external issues, because apparently Vodafone did that
good too, but not as good as the inner thing, so it's
recommended for the company to get back on the old
track as for catching opportunities. Technology is very
needed and very poor out there, the road is clear, they
have to go bravely for that.

Competitive Analysis:
(Porter’s Five-Forces Model)
Rivalry among existing competitors: High
The word ‘high’ may not be enough for describing the
competition among the three major companies in the
telecommunications industry in Egypt, instead, we can
use ‘severe’ / ‘extreme’. The three companies are nearly
the same in their services, offerings, promotion, etcetera.
Vodafone comes first in the market share with around 44
percent, Orange (formerly Mobinil) in the second place
with 33 percent, and finally Etisalat with 23 percent.
Bargaining power of buyers: High
With similar services, very low priced sim cards, and poor
customer retaining and loyalty programs, the only reason
for sticking to one company may be “don't wanna change
my number” and even you can shift to another company
with your same old number.
14. 14
Bargaining power of suppliers: Low
The telecommunications industry –by nature- is not
affected by suppliers, supply chain here don't play and
important role and is not considered as an advantage, as
there is only one fair service supplier, which is the
government. Other suppliers (SIM cards manufacturers,
network towers companies, equipment suppliers,
etcetera) may have an influence, yet, it remains
insignificant.
Threat of substitute products: Medium – High
Cell phones network communication could perhaps be
the new land line communication (a new old thing); with
the development of social networks and applications,
phone networks could be useless comparable to those
technologies. Companies need to think in ways to cope
with that shift without losing their ‘beloved’ source of
revenue, their clients.
15. 15
Threat of new market entrants: Low – Medium
Although Etisalat entered the market in 2007 and
successfully acquired a fair share of it, that cannot be
repeated again easily from a new company, as the
market is almost fully saturated, mobile network
subscriptions have already exceeded the number of
population, and a place for a new player may not be
available anymore. Although it's hard to enter, but it’s
not impossible, a revolutionary technologies and services
could reopen the market’s closed doors.
17. 17
Comments:
Vodafone is four or five (more than one) steps ahead of
its competitors, this could easily observed in the higher
market share, the better service quality, and the wider
range of geographical reach.
Currently, the competition is not only limited to mobile
network operators, ‘Whatsapp’ for example may be
considered as a competitor. People are communicating
differently nowadays, phone calls are being replaced by
social media applications, it's a universal invasion, and
network operators in general need to turn this need into
a want, and by ‘this’ I mean phone communication.
Overall performance of Vodafone among competitors is
great, with one point above the 2.5 average, and over
half a point over its competitors.
