Die Fair-Use Flatrate ist eine vielversprechende neue Tarifart, die verstärkt im Zugangsgeschäft zum mobilen Internet eingesetzt wird. Vergleichbar mit einer klassischen Flatrate gestattet sie die unbegrenzte Nutzung zu einem festen monatlichen Preis, drosselt allerdings die Geschwindigkeit nach Überschreitung eines bestimmten Transfervolumens. Geg...

The fair use flat rate is a promising tariff concept for the mobile telecommunication industry. Similar to classical flat rates it allows unlimited usage at a fixed monthly fee.

Current mobile business models for mobile commerce do not seem promising with regard to substantial revenue streams for mobile network operators as well as mobile service provid- ers. Today's settings require customers to "invest" into data transmission before being able to enter a mobile service, i.e. they are forced to pay for all data transmitte...

Situation dependent services are services that significantly depend on the user's context. Considering the individual needs, such services are regarded to be more beneficial to the customer than non-individual services. In this paper we present a conceptual framework and characterise a service platform for the cooperative development of situation d...
