This volume aims to provide leading research in the area of empirical Internet forecasting, demand analysis, pricing and planning. Its purpose is to educate the reader about how traditional analytic techniques can be used to access Internet growth and how alternative approaches can better address the pricing, planning and regulatory issues of Internet growth.
