REGULATION
OF ICT INDUSTRIES
The interplay between regulation and ICT industries
is the main focus of my research. I am interested
in the impact that regulation has on companies
in the ICT field but also on the way companies
try to influence government to achieve their goals.
Under this major umbrella I have focus my intellectual
curiosity in the following current research projects.
|
| Information
and Communications Technologies Convergence Project
(ICTC):
This is a project in cooperation with Ian MacInnes
where we are analyzing industries and the way
the changes in industry are affecting the way
they are regulated. Research projects in this
area include:
Garcia-Murillo,
M. “Regulatory Responses to Convergence:
Experiences from Four Countries,” INFO,
(forthcoming) February 2005.
García-Murillo, Martha and Ian MacInnes,
“The impact of technological convergence on the regulation of ICT
industries,” Journal of Media Management, Vol. 5 No. 5 2003
García-Murillo M., MacInnes I., “FCC
organizational structure and regulatory convergence,” Telecommunications Policy.
Vol. 25 Issue 6, July 2001.

| Infrastructure
Project:
Information and Communications Infrastructure has
become fundamental to the economic, social and
cultural development of a country. The research
conducted under this project aims to determine the
factors that affect the deployment of ICT
infrastructure around the world. I am also
currently working with some professors in Mexico
to help expand connectivity in that country. Research
projects that I have conducted in this area include:
García-Murillo,
M., “International Broadband Deployment: The
Impact of Unbundling” Communications and
Strategies (fortcoming) January,
2005.
García-Murillo,
“Assessing The Impact Of Internet Telephony On
The Deployment Of Telecommunications
Infrastructure,” Computer Networks Journal, (Under
review)

Regulation
and Industry Behavior Project (R&IB):
Many ICT industries are heavily regulated. Scholars
that have analyze the field recognize that regulation
affects industry in multiple ways. The purpose of
this project is to look at the impact that differing
types of regulation have on industry. Research conducted
within this project includes the impact of incentive
price regulation on the quality of telecommunication
services. The impact of unbundling rules on broadband
infrastructure deployment. Research projects in
this area include:
García-Murillo,
M., “Efectos de las Diferencias Entre
Principales y Agentes en la Armonización de las
Leyes de Telecomunicaciones en Centroamérica,” Revista
de Ciencias Sociales (forthcoming).

M., MacInnes I., "The impact of legislative
change on the behavior of telecommunications
carriers" Telecommunications Policy. (under
review)

an Indicator of Service Quality,” Telecommunications
Policy.
