A new techno-economics modeling for asynchronous transfer mode based high-speed networks

This paper is concerned with a new techno-economic modeling of ATM based high-speed networks. Coupled with advances of technology, the rapid development of new telecommunications services significantly increases the magnitude of risk in making an investment decision. Naturally, the success of techno-economic modeling depends on how effectively we manage underlying risk factors such as cost and technology. To deal with risk factors, we need to rely on modern decision and risk analysis while implementing mathematical optimization for solving a complex capacity expansion problem of telecommunication systems during the planning period. We provide a case study that will enhance our understanding of the techno-economic analysis for emerging telecommunication systems.
