As Telecommunication has become a basic requirement of the today’s society there had been a vast increase of competition between the telecommunication service providers. Every service provider tries to cater the customers the best services for the lowest charges. Customers have the expectation of receiving the most recent technologies for the cheapest cost. Triple play (voice, data, content) is becoming everyone’s requirement today in communication. Voice over IP (VoIP) comes handy in considering Triple play. The design presents in the paper is an approach developed for a company that holds an Internet Service Provider (ISP) license from the Telecommunications Regulatory Commission of Sri Lanka (TRCSL) for island-wide coverage. The said company is a subsidiary of the leading Telecommunication provider of the nation. The problem faced here by the subsidiary is finding the capital cost to provide this highly exclusive IN (Intelligent Network) services to the customers in their initiation phase to cope with the existing competition. As an optimum solution, came up with the idea of accessing existing legacy PSTN core network of the leading telecommunication service provider which enhances most of the highly exclusive services. The system presented in the paper is a small model of an existing network that allows online billing facility for data calls as an IN facility.

The deployment of telecommunication infrastructures is a challenge in many parts of South Africa particularly in the rural areas. The challenge has impact of communities' members as they do not have network coverage for Internet in some areas. The challenge gets worse with individual telecommunication service provider. Hence there is technological proposal for sharing of infrastructure by the service providers. However, the sharing of infrastructure is not as easy as notion by many individuals and groups institutions included. The article presents findings from a study on how a South African telecommunication network service provider could deploy shared infrastructures in the country's rural communities. The sharing of infrastructure is described by the structure and actions of agents within the infrastructure sharing process. Structuration theory was employed as a lens in the data analysis. The key findings include insufficient distribution of infrastructure, ownership responsibility, competitiveness, infrastructure deployment cost, and signification of regulation.

Flat Rate

Flat-rate pricing, as opposed to charging customers for actual usage, dominates many service industries (e.g., telecommunications, health clubs, and music streaming), and customers often express a flat-rate bias and choose flat rates even if a pay-per-use tariff would be less expensive for them. However, evidence of the effect of this bias on churn is mixed. The competitive market position of a service provider may represent a relevant contingency factor related to this effect; building on attribution theory, the current study predicts that customers attribute their flat-rate bias differently, depending on service providers’ strategic positioning, which leads to varying churn behavior. A survival analysis of approximately 2 years’ transactional data gathered from 21,490 customers of a premium Internet service provider affirms that a flat-rate bias leads to churn in the premium segment. Two experimental studies show that customers of premium service providers attribute their flat-rate bias more externally and exhibit lower fairness perceptions but increased churn intentions compared to low-cost customers who make internal attributions and who thus have less negative perceptions and lower churn intentions. Therefore, premium service managers must proactively manage customers who exhibit flat-rate biases to prevent their negative reactions. Low-cost providers generally have less need for such action and can benefit from flat rates without risking increased churn, despite higher price sensitivity of their customers.

Number Portability

Retaining existing customer has been considered to be one of the most critical challenges for telecommunication service providers than for attracting new ones. In telecommunication, the service offered is different from that of a general commodity sale as in the former case the service is considered to be a continuous process, wherein the service provider can offer the differentiated services throughout the customer’s tenure. This differentiation in service offered creates a demarcation from the competitors and hence establishes competitive advantage for that service provider for attracting new customers and retaining the existing ones, which ultimately determines the profitability. In this paper, the author captures this differentiation factor by investigating customer switching behavior under Mobile Number Portability (MNP) in Indian telecommunication market. It is shown that only limited attention has been paid to the customer churn under MNP and none of the existing studies incorporated psychological constructs as the determinants of customer churn. In this context, the study used discriminant analysis to understand the factors that best discriminate between switchers and non-switchers and predict (develop a churn prediction model) the customer churn behavior through incorporating psychological constructs. The findings indicate that service quality, customer satisfaction, attachment, commitment and switching costs are the major factors differentiating the switching and non-switching decisions. Service quality of the service provider found to be as the differentiating factor in churning decision. The results of the study have implications for both academicians and relationship mangers; they are using psychological constructs to predict customer switching behavior.

Tidak semua informasi yang ada di internet positif, tak jaranginformasi negatif banyak ditemukan, bahkan informasi yang berkonten negatif terkadang merugikanpengguna internet. Untuk bisa terkoneksi ke internet ada banyak layanan internet yang bisa digunakan,pastinya layanan tersebut sudah terhubung dengan ISP (internet service provider) atau jasa penyedialayanan internet. Jaringan LAN adalah konsep jenis jaringan yang banyak digunakan dalampendistribusian layanan internet. Saat ini pendistribusian layanan internet sudah semakin meluas, mulaidari instansi pemerintah, perusahaan, sekolah bahkan sampai café untuk sekedar minum kopi pun takluput dari layanan internet, untuk itu perlu melakukan filterisasi terhadap situs web yang berkontennegatif.

AbstractAn important problem of network traffic is how to efficiently carry massive amounts of data traffic generated by Peer-to-Peer (P2P) services in high-speed and large-capacity optical access networks. P2P file-sharing traffic is regarded as one of the biggest bandwidth consumption in the world. Internet service providers can reduce the bandwidth burden in the feeder fiber by localizing the network traffic. In this paper, we propose an enhanced redirection strategy based on the optimized MPCP protocol (ERS-MPCP) to redirect the traffic into the access network and reduce the latency. A Markov chain is used for mathematical modeling. In the proposed strategy, we build a simulation platform for network simulation. Simulation results show that our strategy can improve the overall redirection success rate by up to 9%, thereby reducing the data traffic burden on the core network.

This chapter covers the pressing issues of online free expression at the time of global telecommunication services and social media. What once was the domain of the state has become the prerogative of private global companies – it is their terms of service and sense of social responsibility that have replaced local perceptions of morality and set limits to individual personal rights. Whether protecting privacy or defending against defamation, it is the Internet Service Provider who can offer tools far more effective and prompt than any national court and law enforcement agency. And even though the right to free expression is firmly rotted in the global standard of article 19 UDHR, nowhere than online are the differences in its interpretation, originated by history, morality and religion, more palpable. The paper aims to discuss each of the three composite rights of free expression (the right to hold, impart and receive information and ideas) and identify the actual limitations originated by national laws. The author emphasizes states' positive obligation to take active measures aimed at protecting free expression, ensuring that all human rights are “protected, respected and remedied”. This obligation makes the interrelationship between national lawmakers and international telecommunication service providers complex as the latter serve as the actual gate keepers of free expression in the information society. The paper covers a discussion on how different countries deal with this challenge through various approaches to ISP liability, including the notice-and-take down procedure as well as content filtering (preventive censorship). The author goes on to criticize those mechanisms as enabling ISPs too much freedom in deciding upon the shape and scope of individuals' right to impart and receive information.
