Capacity Crunch. Wird aus dem "World Wide Web" das "World Wide Wait"?: Vortrag gehalten auf der 109. AFCEA Fachveranstaltung "Internet der Dinge für Systeme der Bundeswehr - Vernetzung und Souveränität", 2017, Bonn

Abstract

International bandwidth demand continues to grow exponentially. At the same time there exists a physical threshold to the amount of data that can be transfered via a fiber link. This combination leads to the threat of a possible capacity crunch, when bandwidth demand exceeds the supply. Besides technological aspects, non-technological dominate possible further developments on the bandwith market and therefore the possibility of a capacity crunch, so that a capacity crunch within the next 15 years is a valid scenario. This leads to important questions: What is the appropriate level of involvement for governmental influence and actors in public security as well as the military? Who are the actors on the market and who should be in the future, which capabilities do public agencies need in the future
