ECS746P Network Planning, Finance and Management

Module code: ECS746P

Credits: 15
Semester: SEM2

This module focuses on commercially informed network resource challenges and their financial impact, following the growth of a UK based SME as it expands its operations and the digital services upon which it relies. Beginning with telephony and the foundations of network economics, then evaluating the impact of digital transformation and convergence, the module progresses into the heart of shared network resource challenges: network transitivity, end-to-end performance evaluation, and multi-service cost optimisation.

The module aims to provide an analytical overview of resource sharing under uncertainty in digital networks and services.
