WIE 2020: The 11th Workshop on Internet Economics	December 16, 2020Dec 16, 2020	December 17, 2020Dec 17, 2020	WIE	This workshop focused on those users of CAIDA data that have explicitly tried to conduct economics or policy research with the data.
WIE-KISMET 2019: Workshop on Internet Economics: Knowledge of Internet Structure: Measurement, Epistemology, and Technology	December 9, 2019Dec 9, 2019	December 11, 2019Dec 11, 2019	WIE / KISMET	Initial topics: economics and incentives surrounding abuse of the Internet addressing, naming, and routing systems, aspects of internet structure that allow us to establish a baseline against which to detect evidence of abuse, including DNS zone delegation, DNS and BGP trust hierarchies, and routing relationships what data is available that can inform these topics, and how to think about what needs to be ‘open knowledge’ in order to allow the public and private sector to cooperatively understand and improve security and stability of these systems. we will also discuss what kind of institutional, community, and government support do we need to get something off the ground, and discuss what we can learn from similar challenges in other critical infrastructure industries, e.g., financial.
WIE 2018: 9th Workshop on Internet Economics	December 4, 2018Dec 4, 2018	December 7, 2018Dec 7, 2018	WIE	The goal of this workshop series is to provide a forum for researchers, commercial Internet facilities and service providers, technologists, economists, theorists, policy makers, and other stakeholders to empirically inform emerging Internet regulatory and policy debates. This year’s focus is the measurement and analysis of progress toward a given Internet policy goal.
WIE 2017: 8th Workshop on Internet Economics	December 13, 2017Dec 13, 2017	December 14, 2017Dec 14, 2017	WIE	The goal of this workshop series is to provide a forum for researchers, commercial Internet facilities and service providers, technologists, economists, theorists, policy makers, and other stakeholders to empirically inform emerging Internet regulatory and policy debates. Topics of interest: What do we know about the economics of the Internet ecosystem? What should a new Telecommunications Act look like? What data is needed in order to understand the state of the Internet and its future trajectory?
WIE 2016: 7th Workshop on Internet Economics	December 8, 2016Dec 8, 2016	December 9, 2016Dec 9, 2016	WIE	Topics of interest: What data is needed in order to understand the state of the Internet and its future trajectory? What do we know about the economics of the ecosystem? Architectural issues (anchored in current policy issues) Framing discourse around policy issues: is new language needed? Thought experiment: What would a new telecommunications act look like?
WIE 2015: 6th Workshop on Internet Economics	December 16, 2015Dec 16, 2015	December 17, 2015Dec 17, 2015	WIE	Both current events and trends, as well as our past discussions, shape the themes for this year’s WIE. The FCC’s latest open Internet order changes the landscape of regulation by using Title II as a basis for Internet regulation. We prefer not to use this workshop to debate what the court will do. Instead, we hope to discuss issues that will arise if the courts uphold the law. What are the implications of Title II regulation for some of the issues we have looked at in the past, or which are now emerging as important factors in shaping the future of the Internet? Quality of Experience Differentiated services on the public Internet Consumer expectations about broadband Internet access Implications of direct interconnection The implications of specialized services Measurement issues in February 2015 Open Internet Report and Order Implications of new technology
WIE 2014: 5th Workshop on Internet Economics	December 10, 2014Dec 10, 2014	December 11, 2014Dec 11, 2014	WIE	We have picked some specific topics for this meeting, based on the interests of the participants and a sense of what is important right now, but we want as well to see if we can take a fundamental look at the issues that may shape the future. The discussions of this workshop tend to center on means–for example, how could one craft a network neutrality regulation. But neutrality is not a fundamental goal, it is a tool to prevent a set of harms. Understanding what these harms are is a better starting point for a long-range discussion.
WIE 2013: 4th Workshop on Internet Economics: Economic health of the Internet ecosystem	December 12, 2013Dec 12, 2013	December 13, 2013Dec 13, 2013	WIE	We are proposing a general theme of “The economic health of the Internet ecosystem”. The Internet ecosystem (or more particularly the consumer-centered part of the ecosystem) derives income from consumer spend on access and applications/content, and from advertising. We are interested in how these moneys flow into the various parts of the ecosystem, and how they sustain investments and innovations.
WIE 2012: 3rd Workshop on Internet Economics: Definitions and Data	December 12, 2012Dec 12, 2012	December 13, 2012Dec 13, 2012	WIE	The theme for this WIE is “Definitions and Data”, motivated by our sense that many of the debates today about effective regulation are clouded by lack of clarity about terms and concepts, and lack of real information about the current state of the communications infrastructure.
WIE 2011: 2nd Workshop on Internet Economics	December 1, 2011Dec 1, 2011	December 2, 2011Dec 2, 2011	WIE	Topics of interest for this workshop series include the economic drivers and effects of: peering strategies and conflicts Internet content delivery, including video the network neutrality debate Internet access competition, both wired and wireless BGP routing (e.g., how much does deaggregation cost?) IP transit pricing traffic and topology dynamics of the peering ecosystem
