  1. Joint ITU-T SG 13 and ISO/JTC1/SC 6 Workshop on “Future Networks Standardization”(Geneva, Switzerland, 11 June 2012) Socio-Economic Aware Design of Future Network Technology (Y.FNsocioeconomic) Martin Waldburger, University of Zurich, Editor of Y.FNsocioeconomic in Q21/13, waldburger@ifi.uzh.ch

  2. Outline • Socio-economic Awareness • Design Goals and Objectives in Y.3001 • Scope of Y.FNsocioeconomic • Proposed Structure • Tussle Evolution: Bandwidth Sharing • Tussle Analysis Meta-method • Conclusions and Recommendation • Q&A

  3. Socio-economic Awareness (1) Stakeholders with varying socio-economic interests … End-users Regulators ASPs ISPs Out-of-network socio-economic interactions Technology choices (including investments, configurations) Socio-economic layer Technology layer Technology outputs (connectivity, QoS, mobility, security, etc.) Network applications Middle boxes Firewalls Technology components Network protocols Links Switches Routers 3G towers Servers Socio-economic layer is governed by laws of socio-economics, while technology layer by laws of physics

  4. Socio-economic Awareness (2) • Traditional engineering goals (technology design) • Effectiveness • Efficiency • Modularity • Security • Technology will reach multiple stakeholders • Different interpretations of goals • Different incentives • Different choices • Understanding socio-economic aspects • Complete view on ecosystem • Assess technology adoption and long-term success Stakeholdersengage in tussles

  5. Design Goals and Objectives in Y.3001 ... toreducebarrierstoentryforthevariousactorsinvolved in thenetworkecosystem. ... toreducelifecyclecosts in orderforthemtobedeployableandsustainable. ... allowappropriatecompetitionand an appropriatereturnfor all actors FNs are recommended to be designed to provide a sustainable competition environment for solving tussles among the range of participants in the ICT/telecommunictaion ecosystem Rationale: Many technologies have failed to be deployed, flourish, or be sustainable because of inadequate or inappropriate decisions of the architect, ... Sufficient attention therefore needs to be paid to economic and social aspects such as economic incentives in designing and implementing the requirements, architecture, and protocol of FNs in order to provide a sustainable competition environment to the various participants • „Future Networks: Objectives and Design Goals“ • Objectives • Service awareness • Data awareness • Environmental awareness • Social and economic awareness • Design goals • Service diversity • Functional flexibility • Virtualization of resources • Data access • Energy consumption • Service universalization • Economic incentives • Network management • Mobility • Optimization • Identification • Reliability

  6. Scope of Y.FNsocioeconomic • Y.3001 lists... • Candidate technologies • But no methods to achieve goals and objectives • „Socio-Economic Aware Design of Future Network Technology“ • This Recommendation lists methods to achieve socio-economic design goals and objectives for Future Networks (FNs). When a candidate FN technology is provided, the methods listed provide a structured approach • to anticipate at technology design time the socio-economic impact of the technology taking into account the relevant set of stakeholders, tussles emerging among them, and the range of available choices, • to anticipate either a stable and incentives-compatible or an unstable outcome resulting from deploying the technology, • to identify potential spillover (unwanted) effects from the technology’s primary functionality to another functionality, • and to help design technology for Future Networks that is in-line with the respective socio-economic design goals and objectives.

  7. Proposed Structure Tussle concept Meta-method Methods to implement steps of tussle analysis • Summary • Scope • References • Definitions • Abbreviationsandacronyms • Conventions • Introduction • Socio-economic Aware Deploymentof Future Network Technology • Design forTussle • Technology Deployment Cycle • Tussle Evolution • Tussle Analysis • StakeholderIdentificationMethods • TussleIdentificationMethods • Tussle Impact andTussle Evolution Methods • Appendix: MethodsOverview

  8. Tussle Evolution: Bandwidth Sharing peer-to-peer (p2p) users p2p users get disproportionate bandwidth share p2p users configure applications to open multiple TCP connections for the same session p2p applications configured to perform traffic obfuscation ? ISPs throttle bandwidth of p2p applications by using DPI technology Stakeholders’ strategies/policies fair bandwidth sharing Tussle outcome ISP (neutral entity) What if ISPs deploy congestion exposure technologies & congestion pricing schemes? p2p applications motivate multiple TCP connections for the same session ? interactive users get disproportionate bandwidth share interactive users Functionality: bandwidth sharing Regulator announces fines due to VoIP providers‘complaints ISPs Stakeholders’ strategies/policies ISPs use DPI technology to degrade quality of rival VoIP services no discrimination Regulator Tussle outcome ASPs Functionality: VoIP service delivery • Stable outcome • Functionality • Evolves • Initial state • Affects • Unstable outcome

  9. Tussle Analysis Meta-method Functionality I Functionality II Step 1: Identify all primary stakeholder roles and their characteristics for the functionality under investigation spillover new iteration Step 2: Identify tussles among identified stakeholders tussle tussle tussle tussle Step 3: For each tussle assess the impact to each stakeholder and potential spillovers

  10. Conclusions and Recommendation • Engineers need to... • Be aware of socio-economic aspects of technology • Consider socio-economics in technology design • For the goal of... • Long-term success by incentive compatibility • Assessment of adoption potential • Sustainable competition environment • Recommendation Y.FNsocioeconomic • Methods to achieve socio-economic goals, objectives • Tussle analysis (meta-method) • Several methods to implement tussle analysis
