This paper examines the productivity impact of telecommunications infrastructure and telecommunications intensity for 41 US industries over the period 1977 through 1999. A translog cost function that includes both telecommunications infrastructure and telecommunications equipment in its input...

This paper formulates a multiproduct structural model to examine the evolution of the structure of production and demand and the dynamic interaction between the two in the context of the U.S. telecommunications industry over an extended period, from 1935 to 1987. We estimate the degree of scale...

This paper examines the sources of productivity growth for the U.S. telecommunications industry from 1935 to 1987. These years encompass both the pre- and post-AT&T divestiture periods. We formulate a structural model that accounts for both changes in the cost and the demand side of the...

This paper examines the productivity impact of telecommunications infrastructure and telecommunications intensity for 41 US industries over the period 1977 through 1999. A translog cost function that includes both telecommunications infrastructure and telecommunications equipment in its input...

In this paper we empirically estimate the contribution of the communications infrastructure to the growth of output and productivity at the dis-aggregate industry and at the aggregate economy levels. The estimated value of the marginal benefits or the shadow price of the communications...

This paper formulates a multiproduct structural model to examine the evolution of structure of production and demand and the dynamic interaction between the two in the context of the U.S. telecommunications industry over an extended period, from 1935 to 1987.

This paper assesses the growth impact of telecommunications infrastructure investment in developing countries by subjecting country-specific data on mainline tele-density and per capita growth to a Granger causality test within a panel cointegration framework. The results suggest that growth...
