Synopsis:

This book provides extensive evidence on information and communication technologies development diffusion patterns across Asian economies over the period 1960-2015. It concentrates on identification of country-specific ICT diffusion trajectories and unveils characteristics phases and dynamics of the process. The book also traces the patterns of the unique process of technological substitution. It examines two types of technological substitution, namely: `fixed-to-mobile' type technological substitution process encompasses switching from fixed telephony (`old technology') to mobile telephony (`new technology'); while the `fixed-to-wireless' type technological substitution - switching from fixed (narrowband and/or broadband) fixed Internet networks (`old technologies') to wireless (mainly broadband) Internet networks (`new technologies'). The book should interest anyone who wants insight into the development of ICT diffusion and technological substitution in Asia.
