"77-01-T." "Paper presented at the 2nd International Conference on Dynamic Modelling and Control of National Economics, January 24-27, 1977, Palais Auersperg, Vienna, Austria." Includes bibliographical references (pages 25-26). "The paper describes a national telecommunication planning and policy simulation model, constructed for the canadian network. Its main aims is to evaluate the financial consequences on the carriers of the modifications of some control variables like depreciation rate, rate of return, etc, variables which are under the control of a regulatory agency. It also computes the cost of the various services in order to test for possible cross-subsidies. The main characteristics of the model are: a) it is very disaggregated in order to be as close as possible to the service producing activities of the firm; b) it contains 4 blocks: Operating, Costing, Sharing and Accounting. This construction by block allows simulation using any block or using all blocks together as an integrated unit; c) it is completly operational in the sense that it is runned with a part of the canadian network containing 60 nodes and 250 links"--Summary.
