摘要：

The Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) sectors are in a process of technological convergence. Determinant factors in this process are the liberalization of the telecommunications markets and technological change. Many firms are engaged in a process of mergers and alliances to position themselves in this new framework. Technological and demand uncertainties are very important. Our objective in this paper is to study the economic determinants of the strategies of the firms. With this aim, we review some key technological and demand aspects. We shed some light on the strategic motivations of the firms by establishing a parallel with the evolution of the retailing sector. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
