The Future of ATM and Broadband Networking 2000 to 2010

Designed for both service providers and end users, this comprehensive report paints a detailed picture of how and why high-bandwidth networking is likely to develop over the next 10 years.

Featuring scenarios, trends, and developments, the guide explores the investment obstacles to high-bandwidth networking, forecasts the future information requirements of end users, and provides projections for the near term.
