Review The Role of Model-Driven Development Tools: Addressing Many of IT's Most Pressing Needs / IDC Research:This IDC study looks at model-driven development (MDD), which is poised to evolve into the focal point for application development over the next 10 years. Survey data collected from professional developers this summer shows a significant increasing interest in many forms of modeling. Although future adoption plans obtained from surveys always must be taken with a grain of salt, large increases in planned modeling tool use over the next two years are projected from this data. "Model-driven development is expected to become a focal point for application development over the next decade," said Stephen D. Hendrick, group vice president for Application Development and Deployment Research. "Although the transition to MDD is expected to take time, there are too many indicators pointing to MDD's becoming a growth market. However, we also see the potential for some very disruptive technologies, thereby making it possible that the MDD market of tomorrow will look very different from the MDD market of today. ".

Review Competitive Analysis and Profiling of New Zealand Internet Service Providers, 2005 / IDC Research:This IDC study provides a competitive analysis and profile of participants in the New Zealand ISP ecosystem, outlining the nature of key interrelationships, the impact of significant industry developments and the capabilities and strategic direction of each participant. It also assesses the opportunities presented to entrants on the back of the wholesale provisioning of Unbundled Bitstream Service (UBS) by Telecom including new broadband-enabled services such as VoIP and content and entertainment provisioning. The implications of competitive interplay brought about by the growth of fixed wireless access (FWA), nomadic and roaming wireless broadband services is also considered. An outline of each service provider's position and service strategy is provided along with an IDC capability assessment. "Although UBS is an important component of regulation for telco market participants, the limited bandwidth classes and upstream speed available, the high-latency non-QoS service characteristics, and the commercial terms of the service, limit the opportunity for service providers and places new pressures on the industry. These pressures are made worse by the growing impact of wireless broadband providers. Consequently, IDC is seeing a considerable amount of loss leading occurring in UBS broadband provisioning from a number of ISPs. The loss leader strategy reflects the fact that a stuttering landgrab is occurring under financially challenging conditions in an environment with limited tactical options for ISPs. As part of this issue, the attrition rate for tier 3 ISPs in New Zealand is anticipated to be significant. The industry in the process of another shakedown," says Christopher Loh, senior analyst, Telecommunications, IDC New Zealand.
