Abstract

Over the past couple of years, research in telecommunications has evolved far beyond the traditional areas of communications engineering, integrating the perspectives of microeconomics and user-related research and thus covering a broad variety of stakeholders along the value network within a joint holistic framework. In this talk, we will survey the evolution of the resulting communication ecosystem and discuss some examples for the related multidisciplinary research approach.
