Title

Cost Structures of Transport Networks
|
Abstract
|
We discuss automatic switched optical/ transport networks (ASON/ASTN) with respect to cost structures. Based on the application of the value chain model of Michael Porter to network operators' processes and activities, we elaborate on the advantages of automation using standardized network interfaces and a decentralized control plane. Furthermore, new business opportunities enabled by ASON/ASTNs are investigated.
