Translated title:
difussion models for wired and wireless broadband service in o.e.c.d. countries
Summary:
This paper examines and presents the penetration rate of broadband services,
both fixed(wired) and wireless, in OECD countries. Through the evaluation of
some of the most widely used aggregate diffusion models, it is evident that the
S-shaped models provide more appropriate results for fitting historical data
and thus can be used for a more reliable forecasting, which is also studied
(discussed/analyzed) in this paper. The models mainly used are the Gompertz
model and the linear logistic one, providing results that are studied under the
perspective of clustering and comparison between the two services.
