Abstract:
Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs) are of immense value to the mobile telecommunications industry as they provide services at an affordable rate to customers and work with Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) who own the telecommunication infrastructure. This is because Mobile Network Operators sell airtime at wholesale rates to Mobile Virtual Network Operators. The Mobile Virtual Network Operators retain their brand name whilst having an arrangement with their host who is the Mobile Network Operator (MNO). This article therefore identifies the bottlenecks experienced by MNOs in establishing relationships with MVNOs in Nigeria. The article also covers the various forms of MVNO business models available in the industry and the types of policies that support the MVNO success and sustainability.

Abstract:
Mobile packet services are penetrating mobile markets rapidly. The mobile industry relies heavily on data services to replace traditional voice services. Designing a reliable packet service network is critical to the mobile operators’ ability to maintain their core competence in a data service market. The current literature provides many practical tools and theoretical methods to design, plan and dimension Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) and Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) radio networks but overlooks the algorithms of network plan and dimensioning for the core networks. This paper introduces the algorithms to dimension the throughput for packet switched domain of a UMTS network. The analysis is based on the traffic and data throughput generated and absorbed in the interfaces of network entities in UMTS PS network. A case study is provided to verify the algorithms created for UMTS PS network. This paper provides UMTS PS network operators an optimum network size and network structure to deliver an optimum quality of service for users.

Abstract:
The increase in the number of mobile subscribers, coupled with the increase in mobile services is enough reason to monitor the QoS of mobile network operators frequently. This work looks into the QoS of network operators in Calabar, Nigeria, taking into consideration some KPIs ((CSSR, DCR, CST, HOSR, and network quality and network coverage). Analysis of data obtained after a benchmarking drive test shows that Globacom network was within NCC performance threshold for all network KPIs monitored. Also, MTN network performed poorly in HOSR but met the minimum benchmark in other network KPIs. Airtel network failed in the required DCR benchmark but was within the minimum benchmark for other KPIs while 9mobile failed in CSSR and DCR performance threshold but met the performance threshold for other KPIs. This result will be useful to the regulatory body, NCC, those in academic, RF engineers, network subscribers and especially, the network operators which we expect, will optimize their networks immediately.

Abstract:
This paper provides a theory that empirically examines why mobile wireless carriers share the costs of building networks and provisioning wireless services. Of the cost drivers of network operators, the most influential on the industry’s dynamics are capital investments, which include network infrastructure investments. As the industry evolves, players strive to streamline their services, applications, revenue, and business models to revive this industry. In this regard, one model in particular is the network operators’, which shares network investments and service provisioning expenses to reduce their total expenditures while strengthening their financial liquidity. In this paper, the authors integrate research results to provide a new theory on network sharing with concepts and viewpoints that have been developed based on extensive studies of network sharing adopted by network operators and service providers across the world during the past decade.

Abstract:
The deployment of cache and computing resources in 5G mobile communication networks is considered as an important way to reduce network transmission delay and redundant content transmission and improve the efficiency of content distribution and network computing processing capacity, which has been widely concerned and recognized by academia and industry. Aiming at the development trend of cache and computing resource allocation in 5G mobile communication networks, in order to improve the efficiency of content cache and reduce network energy consumption, a 5G network cache optimization strategy based on Stackelberg game was proposed, which modeled network operators and content providers as multimaster and multislave Stackelberg game model. Providers buy base station storage space from network operators to cache popular content. In this paper, we construct the strategy space and profit function of the two sides of the game and prove the existence of Nash equilibrium solution among content providers given a set of base station rental prices of network operators. In this paper, distributed iterative algorithm is used to solve the game model, and the optimal base station pricing of network operators and the optimal base station occupancy rate of content providers are obtained.

The certified thesis is available in the Institute Archives and Special Collections.<br>Innovation in platform industries, including mobile telecommunications, has a great impact on societies and economies; hence a migration from an existing platform to the subsequent one should be progressed under careful forecasting, weighed scenarios and strategies that encompass a broad view. This thesis analyzes why mobile network operators are struggling to move from the second generation (2G) and its derivatives to the third generation (3G) technologies and proposes migration strategies, which allow them to sustain their competitive advantage. First, a migration model is proposed as a reinforcing loop model composed of two dynamics, "Platform Migration" caused by a shortage of network capacity, and "Service Innovation" triggered by a decline in ARPU (Average Revenue Per User). Platform migration is an implementation process for new platform technologies and can be categorized into Revolution-type and Evolution-type. After these two schemes have been evaluated through case studies, Collaboration-type migration, an enhanced Evolution-type, is proposed for future, technically diversified situations. Service Innovation is a process for creating new profitable services to give further revenue growth. Empirical analysis clarifies that mental breakthrough management is a common approach in the mobile industry and proposes that a mixture of corporate, partner and market initiatives be adopted for diversified customer preference. This thesis then proposes the following strategies for future successful migration: first, mobile network operators should drive the migration cycle powerfully, concentrating on successive service innovation dynamics for their revenue growth and the next platform migration. Second, they should choose migration schemes carefully according to their level of technology leadership, value chain leadership and investment capability. Finally, service platform should be considered for realization of innovative services with Partnership Dynamics.<br>by Hisakazu Tsuboya.<br>S.M.M.O.T.

Abstract:
With increasing mobile data demand there is a push towards heterogeneous networks. Small-scale operators (SSOs) of WLANs are becoming more prevalent, while Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) seek an outlet for their customers' data usage. These conditions prompt the need for an effective relationship between the two parties for the purpose of offloading cellular data traffic to WLANs in a way that is economically beneficial to all involved. This thesis presents a model of such a relationship, in which the SSO sets a strategic offloading price per subscriber and several MNOs can choose how many subscribers they want to offload in order to minimize their costs. We determine the optimal offloading price, identify how the SSO incorporates its own network's quality of service (QoS) into its price decision, and examine the way in which the MNOs' cost structures affect their ability to offload. This model can be applied by both MNOs and SSOs to make informed network deployment decisions, even before engaging in an offloading relationship.<br>Master of Science

Abstract:
Alors que l'architecture centralisée et autonome existante des opérateurs de réseaux mobiles (ORM) fournit une connectivité à des milliards d'utilisateurs, ils souffrent d'un manque de mécanismes techniques pour améliorer la collaboration entre les MNO et les autres fournisseurs.Cela a des impacts sur les coûts de mutualisation, ainsi que sur la consommation d'énergie et l'impact environnemental. Cela peut également empêcher l'avènement de modèles commerciaux plus collaboratifs avec d'autres fournisseurs ou même avec des clients. De plus, la complexité des réseaux au-delà de la 5G peut dépasser la capacité d'un ORM à gérer le coût et la complexité. Enfin, les architectures MNO existantes souffrent également de leur centralisation, problèmes techniques et vulnérabilités.Relever ces défis n'est pas un voyage simple. Cependant, nous croyons qu'il y a un intérêt à proposer à la communauté de la recherche en télécommunications une approche de table rase. De telles solutions alternatives doivent - au moins - avoir un écosystème distribué/décentralisé, assurer la fiabilité entre les acteurs dans l'environnement méfiant, partager les ressources entre les parties prenantes, apporter une automatisation plus élevée et fournir une sécurité et une confidentialité suffisantes.La blockchain est une technologie de registre distribué peer-to-peer qui ne peut être mise à jour que par consensus entre la majorité des nœuds participants sur le réseau. En raison de ses caractéristiques intrinsèques, la Blockchain et les smart contrats peuvent réduire le coût, la latence et la complexité de la collaboration entre les entités d'un réseau cellulaire multi-acteurs tout en augmentant la fiabilité, la traçabilité et les capacités de supervision.Ce travail propose un système de connectivité mobile multi-acteurs qui fournit une solution distribuée et sécurisée prou les entités et les acteurs de l'écosystème du réseau cellulaire. Pour ce faire, ce travail fournit dans un premier temps une étude complète des défis existants dans les réseaux cellulaires actuels concernant les aspects commerciaux et de collaboration, les problèmes techniques et la sécurité. Les résultats de ces études nous ont amenés à proposer deux contributions principales, l'une concernant la coopération entre les différents acteurs de l'écosystème des réseaux cellulaires, et l'autre pour la collaboration entre les ORM pour la gestion des identités et des profils.Plus précisément, la première contribution propose un nouvel écosystème de télécommunications hybride (distribué-décentralisé) pour façonner la conception des réseaux au-delà de la 5G et de la 6G. Cette méthode offre la possibilité d'éliminer toute autorité centrale, d'augmenter la tolérance aux pannes du système, de simplifier les procédures informatiques et de sécuriser le paiement entre les entités.La deuxième contribution introduit une nouvelle gestion des profils d'utilisateurs et un portage des numéros et des profils mobiles en plus de la Blockchain et des contrats intelligents. Cette méthode vise à éliminer l'autorité centrale dans la procédure de portage en créant un système plus collaboratif et distribué dans ce but, à augmenter l'automatisation et la confiance, et à remédier à la latence élevée de la méthode existante de portage des ORM. De plus, il offre la possibilité de porter les profils des utilisateurs vers l'ORM destinataire ainsi que le numéro de téléphone avec une procédure automatisée sans autorité centralisée ni tiers.Pour évaluer le système proposé et analyser sa faisabilité de mise en œuvre, nous avons proposé trois scénarios de déploiement dans lesquels la Blockchain peut être logiquement positionnée soit en RAN, cœur de réseau, ou couche de service. Les résultats de l'évaluation montrent que le système est suffisamment évolutif en ce qui concerne le nombre d'acteurs et de collaborateurs, et en fonction des exigences du réseau, ses performances et son niveau de sécurité sont ajustables<br>While the existing centralized and stand-alone architecture of Mobile Network Operators (MNO) provides connectivity to billions of users, they suffer from a lack of technical mechanisms to enhance collaboration between MNOs and other providers.This has impacts on mutualization costs, as well as on energy consumption and environmental impact. This may also prevent the advent of more collaborative business models with other providers or even with customers. Moreover, the complexity of 5G and beyond 5G networks may surpass the capability of one MNO to manage the cost and the complexity of connection. Finally, existing MNO architectures also suffer from their centralization, resulting in several technical issues and vulnerabilities.Addressing these challenges is not a straightforward journey. MNO architectures have been defined for nearly three decades by well-established standardization bodies. However, we believe there is an interest in proposing to the telecom research community a clean-slate approach. Such alternative solutions need to -at least- have a distributed/ decentralized ecosystem, provide trustworthiness between actors in the distrusted environment, share the resources among stakeholders, bring higher automation, and provide sufficient security and privacy. Any alternative addressing these requirements would be a promising potential solution.Blockchain is a peer-to-peer distributed ledger, cryptographically secure, append-only, immutable, traceable, and transparent technology that is only updateable via consensus among a majority of the participating nodes on the network. Due to its intrinsic features, Blockchain, and smart contracts can decrease the cost, latency, and complexity of collaboration among entities in multi-actor cellular network while increasing the trustworthiness, traceability, and supervision abilities.This work proposes a multi-actor mobile connectivity system that provides a distributed, trustful, automated, low-cost, and secure solution for the entities and actors of the cellular network ecosystem. To do so, this work provides at first a comprehensive study of the existing challenges in current cellular networks regarding business and collaboration aspects, technical issues, and security. The results of these studies have led us to propose two main contributions, one regarding the cooperation among different actors of the cellular network ecosystem (i.e., MNOs, service providers, small-scale businesses, vendors, and end-users) and another for collaboration among MNOs (and potentially with regulation bodies) for identity and profile management.More precisely, the first contribution proposes a novel hybrid (distributed-decentralized) telecommunication ecosystem to shape the beyond 5G and 6G network design. This method provides the opportunity to eliminate any central authority, increase the fault tolerance of the system, simplifies IT procedures, and provide secure payment among entities.The second contribution introduces a new user profile management and mobile number and profile porting on top of Blockchain and smart contracts. This method aims to eliminate the central authority in the porting procedure by creating a more collaborative and distributed system to this aim, increase automation and trustfulness, and address the high latency of the existing method for porting the MNOs. Moreover, it brings the opportunity of porting the users' profiles to the recipient MNO as well as the phone number with an automated procedure without a centralized authority or third parties.To evaluate the proposed system and analyze its implementation feasibility, we proposed three deployment scenarios in which the Blockchain can be logically positioned either in RAN, core network, or service layer. The evaluation results show that the system is scalable enough regarding the number of actors and collaborators, and based on the network requirements, its performance and security level are adjustable

Abstract:
Mobile network operators are currently faced with a number of challenges at the market. The revenues from voice services have decreased the last couple of years. Mobile broadband access services are being adopted and the demand is increasing. The increasing traffic volumes require investments in order to increase the network capacity. This development leads to a large interest in network solutions that can offer high capacity and low cost. Besides the use of more efficient radio access technology mobile network operators use strategies for network deployment and operation involving other market actors. Operators share networks with competitors or outsource network deployment and operation to other companies, e.g. suppliers of network equipment. In these examples the mobile operators cooperate about the networks, the relations to end-users are the same as if the operator would operate the network on its own. However, in other areas other actors enter the market for mobile services where mobile operators traditionally have been the dominant player. Handset manufacturers and Internet companies offer value added services and applications to the end-users. They also establish relations with customers of the mobile operators. Hence, mobile operators look into new technical solutions and services in order to reduce costs and find new services and sources of revenues. Many of the networking solutions and services require that the operator cooperates with some other actor. In this PhD thesis cooperation strategies of mobile network operators are analyzed including cooperation with competitors, customers and different types of partners. The partner can be a provider of a non-telecom service like public transportation, financial institutes or third parties taking intermediary roles. The main research questions in the thesis revolves around why and how mobile operators cooperate. The drivers for cooperation and the way the cooperation is organized is analyzed for a number of cases. Three types of services and markets are analyzed: - Public mobile broadband access services - Services and solutions for indoor wireless access - Mobile payment, ticketing and contactless services A number of technical solutions, business concepts and different types of cooperation and business scenarios have been investigated. Two overall research questions that are applicable for all cases of cooperation are identified for the analysis. - What are the main drivers for a specific type of cooperation? - In what ways can the actors organize the cooperation?<br>QC 20110121<br>Affordable Wireless Broadband Access<br>Force

Abstract:
Aim: This study focuses on the degree to which mobile network operators standardize or adapt their product and pricing strategies amongst their foreign subsidiaries. Method: 10 mobile network operators with large overseas business investments and 70 of their foreign majority-owned subsidiaries are included in this empirical analysis. Variables related to data, SMS, Voice, and other relevant variables, are selected to represent ‘product’ marketing characteristics; and number of plans and specific price points across three ‘price baskets’ to represent ‘price’ marketing. Results &amp; Conclusion: MNOs exhibited a moderate degree of standardization in terms of product design, with a lesser degree of standardization for price. Standardization scores were highly positively correlated to subsidiary operations in markets within the same region and level of economic development as the domestic market. There is also a notable clustering of marketing approaches in the Sub-Saharan African region. Implications: Existing research on standardization is reinforced by these results. Future research on the MNO industry, if global in nature, will need to account for the large degree of differences between markets. If focused on specific regions, studies can proceed on the basis of similarity in marketing strategies. Contribution: This is the most recent quantitative study on standardization in the MNO industry carried out in the last 10 years. Since that time the industry has also undergone significant changes.

Full text
Abstract:
All Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) as well as international carriers are moving voice services from the legacy Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) to Voice over IP (VoIP). The benefit is that VoIP traffic can be easily rerouted at any moment, thus giving companies a variety of options as traffic can be rerouted to any carrier of choice leading to different Quality of Service (QoS) levels (and thus agreements) as well as different prices to choose from. With a fierce competition for the telecom companies involved in the voice traffic hubbing business, this new landscape offers not only opportunities but also opens the system to vulnerabilities. The stakes are actually quite high: If harm can be done to one of these international carriers, other companies will route away their traffic. The result will be significant financial damages for the company as well as a serious harm to its reputation. The aim of this paper is to raise awareness that internationalcarriers and in particular their VoIP traffic can be exposed to debilitating attacks to harm these systems that are critical for our everyday life. The experimentation in this project demonstrates with a hands-on example how a major carrier can be hacked and rendered useless. In particular, we craft a framework for testing the security of interconnects between MNOs and international carriers. The central point of the paper will be to demonstrate how easy it can be to attack major carriers in the market: using common open source tools without having any information in advance. Moreover, the goal is to understand how the market functions, how interconnects between companies are built, where the weaknesses are, and which solutions can thwart those threats and secure these systems.

Abstract:
The thesis analyzes the Czech market of the mobile virtual network operators. It's a young and dynamic market. First entity entered in late 2012 and today there are over sixty competitors. This thesis therefore includes the historical background of the liberalization of the telecommunications market in CZ. Furthermore, the text briefly describes today's worldwide and Czech situation in telecommunications. The main goal of the thesis is to analyze whether there is stronger competition on the Czech telecommunications market after the entry of mobile virtual network operators and which of them are likely to succeed. Using Porter's five forces analysis the thesis concludes that there is a stronger competition. The MVNO's success matrix indicates which subjects will win on the market and the strategic groups' analysis compares them with their nearest competitors. The synthesis of applied analyses brings a complex view on the telecommunication market in CZ after the entry of MVNOs.

Abstract:
The objective of this research is to investigate how mobile cellular network operators can increase the average revenue per user by stimulating the usage of mobile broadband services. There is a general consensus that the revenue from voice calls is slowly reaching saturation; hence, mobile cellular operators, service providers and content providers are looking for other sources of revenue from their new and existing customers. They are therefore beginning to focus more intensively on customer retention and on developing new strategies that will stimulate the usage of high speed mobile data services. The research shows that most people are aware of many of the mobile data services offered by operators, but that they thought that they were unreliable, slow, difficult to use and expensive. By and large, people signed up for mobile data services because they wanted a mobile always-on connection anytime, anywhere, with faster speed when accessing e-mail and other services or when downloading data from the Internet. The majority of people would use mobile broadband internet service if it cost less to use; if the speed were faster and the service were easy to use; if the cellular phone had a larger screen and used less battery power; and if the keyboard were larger. The relationship between Network operators, WASPs and content providers was found to be good, even though at times it is strained by the increased competition between them; this forces them not to cooperate on some issues for fear of compromising their competitive advantage.

Magister Legum - LLM<br>This paper analyses how the Zimbabwean economic history has led to the perception and attitude of the population towards the financial industry. It has been blighted by extremes to the extent that in 2008 the Zimbabwe economy had one of the highest hyperinflation rate in the world. Pettinger sums up the hyperinflation journey of Zimbabwe as having begun in the 1990s shortly after the disastrous land reform. This is where private farms were grabbed from landowners and re-allocated to mostly peasant farmers who had no technical know-how in farming. It was also a time when the country was involved in an unbudgeted and unsolicited second Congo civil war necessitating that the Government increase salaries to cater for soldiers and other officials assigned to the Congo. Earlier on the government had buckled under pressure from former war liberators (war veterans) and paid out unbudgeted bonuses.

Abstract:
Telecommunications are an essential part of the global political economy, and the private telecommunications sector is driving much of the transformation across Africa.Yet the regulatory frameworks governing the relationships between African governments and these corporations remain hazy. Focusing on South Africa’s flagship mobile network operators (MNOs), MTN and Vodacom, this open access book provides unique insights into this thin boundary between corporatism and many African states’ global relationships. Drawing on rich archival research, company data, and reports from the South African parliament and Department of International Relations and Cooperation, Odilile uncovers how information and communications technology (ICT) companies have taken advantage of epoch-shifting periods in South Africa’s history, from the end of the Cold War to the end of Apartheid. In so doing, she sheds new light on the wider issues of the politics of the multinational corporation, of foreign investment, and of state-corporation relations across Africa and beyond.

Full text
Abstract:
Radiofrequency spectrum is an essential asset for mobile network operators. Governments set its value to organize competitive frequency auctions and define recurrent payments, such as taxes and right of use. This publication sustains that governments should value radio frequency spectrum as a function of the intended frequency use policy and corresponding obligations. A mathematical formula is proposed to articulate, quantitatively, the relationship between spectrum value and regulatory obligations, including promoting new market entrants, conditioning of wholesale obligations, definition of coverage goals, and requirement to support public safety and first respondent services. This paper targets, in general, the telecommunication ministries, national regulatory authorities, and government entities that address the topic of valuing radio frequency spectrum.

Full text
Abstract:
Digital merchant payments – transactions between traders, or between traders and customers using digital means of payment – can promote tax compliance by providing access to safer, quicker formal payments for consumers, and leaving a digital trail of sales data that can be accessed by tax administration. This study examines how far the potential of digital merchant payments to increase tax compliance is being realised in Rwanda, and whether fees imposed by mobile network operators on digital financial services (DFS) can hinder both DFS adoption and tax compliance. It uses original survey data from 1,100 merchants country-wide, administrative data from the Rwanda Revenue Authority (RRA), focus group discussions and in-depth interviews. Rwanda is an interesting context in which to study digital merchant payments, as these are expected to reach 80 per cent of GDP by 2024.1 Particularly popular are mobile money payments, performed either through the person-to-business payment option MoMo Pay or through standard personal accounts. The country’s commitment to creating a cashless economy was accelerated due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Summary of Working Paper 159.

Valverde, Alvaro. Information and communication technologies for improving investment readiness of small and medium agribusinesses. Commercial Agriculture for Smallholders and Agribusiness (CASA), 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.1079/20240191164.

Full text
Abstract:
Information and communication technologies (ICTs) are increasingly seen as an enabler to improve and promote efficiencies in global food market systems, and the high penetration rate of mobile phones is playing a catalytic role in developing countries. Mobile-based agriculture-value-added services (agri-VAS) aim to mitigate the information, financial and market access gaps faced by smallholder farmers and agribusinesses in developing countries. Over the last two decades, the number and variety of agri-VAS has been continuously increasing, and their landscape has been evolving. However, many agri-VAS never reach financial sustainability or scale and are discontinued after a few years. Increasing efforts are being made to map the landscape of agri-VAS targeted at smallholder farmers across Africa and Asia. However, insufficient attention has been paid to exploring successful agri-VAS that have small and medium (SME) agribusinesses as their main clients and that source from smallholder farmers. Areas with potential for further study include the following: (a) agribusinesses operating in value chains that are digitized by others (e.g. mobile network operators); (b) agribusinesses that are developing and deploying agri-VAS in-house; (c) agribusinesses using services provided by third-party agri-VAS providers within their value chains; and (d) agribusinesses that develop partnerships with agri-VAS providers to co-develop solutions. This study aims to address the following question: What are the factors behind successful deployment of mobile technologies to improve agribusiness productivity and investment readiness? It aims to analyse agri-VAS that have SME agribusinesses as their main clients, as they are more likely to positively impact the investment readiness of SME agribusinesses than agri-VAS with smallholder farmers as their only clients, which are also the most evaluated type of agri-VAS. The study consists of a combination of secondary and primary research, resulting in: (a) a set of investment-policy and service-design recommendations, based on high-impact, sustainable agribusiness-focused VAS; (b) recommendations on how to improve the body of impact evidence; and (c) the identification of investment opportunities at the agribusiness and agri-VAS levels.

El-Rayes, Khaled, and Ernest-John Ignacio. Evaluating the Benefits of Implementing Mobile Road Weather Information Sensors. Illinois Center for Transportation, 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.36501/0197-9191/22-004.

Full text
Abstract:
State departments of transportation (DOTs) have traditionally utilized fixed road weather information sensors (RWIS) to improve road safety during inclement weather; enhance the management of labor, equipment, and materials for winter road maintenance; and reduce adverse environmental impacts from road maintenance activities. Despite the benefits of these fixed RWIS sites, their coverage and effectiveness are limited because of their stationary locations. To overcome these limitations, recent advances in mobile road weather information sensing technology and cellular communications have enabled the development of mobile RWIS that can be deployed on vehicles to expand the limited coverage of fixed RWIS networks. Combining mobile RWIS, fixed RWIS networks, automatic vehicle location, and maintenance decision support systems (MDSS) provide DOTs with accurate georeferenced road and weather information that can be used by DOTs to optimize winter road maintenance operations and deicer applications. This report presents the findings of a research project funded by the Illinois Department of Transportation to investigate the effectiveness of mobile RWIS and MDSS in improving winter maintenance operations. This project had the following three objectives. First, conduct a literature review to gather and analyze current practices and latest research studies on mobile RWIS and their use for collecting real-time winter roadway conditions to optimize winter maintenance operations. Second, perform interviews with other state DOTs to gather and analyze their experiences and best management practices for the deployment and use of mobile RWIS and MDSS. Third, develop recommendations for a pilot study to evaluate the deployment and performance of mobile RWIS and MDSS in order to determine their effectiveness, implementation requirements, software/technology needs, operational challenges, and life-cycle costs.

Noah, Alphonse, and Ruth Tacneng. Cameroon’s Tax on Mobile Money: Implications for Agents' Performance and Revenue Sustainability. Institute of Development Studies, 2024. http://dx.doi.org/10.19088/ictd.2024.035.

Full text
Abstract:
Mobile money taxation gives African governments an opportunity to broaden their fiscal base and explore new revenue-generating possibilities. Cameroon introduced a 0.2 per cent tax on mobile money transfers and withdrawals from 1 January 2022. Our research analyses the behaviour of agents, who act as intermediaries between mobile money account holders and mobile money service providers, before and after the tax on mobile money (MM tax). Agents play a key role in the distribution of mobile money services. Their presence is vital for achieving financial inclusion, especially in areas less served by banks and other traditional financial service providers. An agent’s revenue is mainly derived from commission earned on each transaction – they receive an average of 40–45 per cent of the commission, and the remaining 55–60 per cent is shared between the mobile network operator, partner banks, and agent’s manager (superagent). Given their importance in the mobile money ecosystem, factors that negatively affect the attractiveness of the business for agents could have policy implications on financial inclusion.

Abstract:
Managing the ever-growing volume and velocity of data across the battlefield is a critical problem for warfighters. Solving this problem will require a fundamental change in how battlefield analyses are performed. A new approach to making decisions on the battlefield will eliminate data transport delays by moving the analytical capabilities closer to data sources. Decision cycles depend on the speed at which data can be captured and converted to actionable information for decision making. Real-time situational awareness is achieved by locating computational assets at the tactical edge. Accelerating the tactical decision process leverages capabilities in three technology areas: (1) High-Performance Computing (HPC), (2) Machine Learning (ML), and (3) Internet of Things (IoT). Exploiting these areas can reduce network traffic and shorten the time required to transform data into actionable information. Faster decision cycles may revolutionize battlefield operations. Presented is an overview of an artificial intelligence (AI) system design for near-real-time analytics in a tactical operational environment executing on co-located, mobile HPC hardware. The report contains the following sections, (1) an introduction describing motivation, background, and state of technology, (2) descriptions of tactical decision process leveraging HPC problem definition and use case, and (3) HPC tactical data analytics framework design enabling data to decisions.
