This monography provides an analysis and assessment of the impacts of the solutions developed by ETICS. The analysis is focused on impacts in four distinct, but strongly interrelated, domains: the business domain, the legal domain, the socioeconomic domain and the Net Neutrality domain. Exploring how these complementary impacts may affect the ETICS project is fundamental for envisioning the evolution of ETICS and for setting appropriate governance policies. For each domain, the deliverable will first introduce the methodologies employed for carrying out the process of identifying, describing and assessing the different business, legal, socioeconomic, and Net neutrality impacts. These methodologies will be applied to obtain: 1. an identification of the stakeholders involved and/or the key issues under scrutiny; 2. a definition of the expected impacts and their mutual relationships; and 3. a set of guidelines and recommendations for properly leveraging expected positive impacts and for containing the effect of expected negative impacts (Sections 2, 3, 4 and 5). The analysis for each single domain will be followed by an evaluation of how the different impact levels mutually affect one another, in order to synthesize the previous domain-specific analyses and to provide a unified vision (Section 6). Finally, conclusions will be drawn on the overall impact identification and analysis process performed, highlighting the effect of the ETICS framework on the cooperation between operators and other relevant actors as well as proposing future work avenues (Section 7).

Abstract

This monography provides an analysis and assessment of the impacts of the solutions developed by ETICS. The analysis is focused on impacts in four distinct, but strongly interrelated, domains: the business domain, the legal domain, the socioeconomic domain and the Net Neutrality domain. Exploring how these complementary impacts may affect the ETICS project is fundamental for envisioning the evolution of ETICS and for setting appropriate governance policies. For each domain, the deliverable will first introduce the methodologies employed for carrying out the process of identifying, describing and assessing the different business, legal, socioeconomic, and Net neutrality impacts. These methodologies will be applied to obtain: 1. an identification of the stakeholders involved and/or the key issues under scrutiny; 2. a definition of the expected impacts and their mutual relationships; and 3. a set of guidelines and recommendations for properly leveraging expected positive impacts and for containing the effect of expected negative impacts (Sections 2, 3, 4 and 5). The analysis for each single domain will be followed by an evaluation of how the different impact levels mutually affect one another, in order to synthesize the previous domain-specific analyses and to provide a unified vision (Section 6). Finally, conclusions will be drawn on the overall impact identification and analysis process performed, highlighting the effect of the ETICS framework on the cooperation between operators and other relevant actors as well as proposing future work avenues (Section 7).
