The Little Data Book on Information and Communication Technology
Preface Since the late 1990s access to information and communication technologies has seen tremendous growth—driven primarily by the wireless technologies and liberalization of telecommunications markets. Mobile communications have evolved from simple voice and text services to diversified innovative applications and mobile broadband Internet. The number of mobile cellular subscriptions reached approximately 4.7 billion globally, including people in remote and rural areas. The number of Internet users has risen constantly and now tops 1.8 billion people, with the number of broadband connections more than 470 million in 2009. The impacts of information and communication technologies cross all sectors. Research shows that investment in information and communication technologies is associated with such economic benefits as higher productivity, lower costs, new economic opportunities, job creation, innovation, and increased trade and exports. Information and communication technologies also help provide better services in health and education and strengthen social cohesion. The Little Data Book on Information and Communication Technology 2011 charts the progress of this revolution for 213 countries around the world. It provides comparable statistics on the sector for 2000 and 2009 across a range of indicators, enabling readers to readily compare countries. This book includes indicators covering the economic and social context, the structure of the information and communication technology sector, sector efficiency and capacity, and sector performance related to access, usage, quality, affordability, trade, and applications. The Glossary contains definitions of the terms used in the tables.

Data notes The data in this book are for 2000 and 2009 or the most recent year unless otherwise noted in the table or the Glossary. • Growth rates are proportional changes from the previous year unless otherwise noted. • Regional aggregates include data for low- and middle-income economies only. • Italics indicate data for years or periods other than those specified.
Symbols used: ..
indicates that data are not available or that aggregates cannot be calculated because of missing data.
0 or 0.0
indicates zero or small enough that the number would round to zero at the displayed number of decimal places.
$
indicates current U.S. dollars.
Data are shown for economies with populations greater than 30,000 or for smaller economies if they are members of the World Bank. The term country (used interchangeably with economy) does not imply political independence or official recognition by the World Bank but refers to any economy for which the authorities report separate social or economic statistics.

The Little Data Book on Information and Communication Technology
Income group tables For operational and analytical purposes the World Bank’s main criterion for classifying economies is gross national income (GNI) per capita. Every economy in The Little Data Book on Information and Communication Technology is classified as low income, middle income, or high income. Low- and middleincome economies are sometimes referred to as developing economies. The use of the term is convenient; it is not intended to imply that all economies in the group are experiencing similar development or that other economies have reached a preferred or final stage of development. Classification by income does not necessarily reflect development status. Low-income economies are those with a GNI per capita of $995 or less in 2009. Middle-income economies are those with a GNI per capita of more than $995 but less than $12,196. Lower-middle-income and upper-middle-income economies are separated at a GNI per capita of $3,945. High-income economies are those with a GNI per capita of $12,196 or more. Euro area includes the member states of the Economic and Monetary Union of the European Union that have adopted the euro as their currency: Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Portugal, Slovak Republic, Slovenia, and Spain.

(United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization Institute for Statistics) E-government Web measure index measures the level of sophistication of a government’s online presence based on four stages of e-government evolution: emerging presence, enhanced presence, transactional presence, and connected presence. A value of 0 indicates the lowest presence, a value of 1 the highest. Data listed for 2009 are for 2010. (United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs and United Nations Public Administration Network) Fixed broadband Internet access tariff is the lowest sampled cost per 100 kilobits per second per month and is calculated from low- and high-speed monthly service charges. Monthly charges do not include installation fees or modem rentals. (International Telecommunication Union) Fixed broadband Internet subscribers are the number of broadband subscribers with a digital subscriber line, cable modem, or other high-speed technology. (International Telecommunication Union) GDP growth is the annual percentage growth rate of gross domestic product (GDP) at market prices based on constant local currency. Aggregates are based on constant 2000 U.S. dollars. GDP is the sum of gross value added by all resident producers in the economy plus any product taxes and minus any subsidies not included in the value of the products. It is calculated without making deductions for depreciation of fabricated assets or for depletion and degradation of natural resources. (World Bank and Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development) GNI per capita, World Bank Atlas method, is gross national income (GNI) converted to U.S. dollars using the World Bank Atlas method divided by the midyear population. GNI is the sum of value added by all resident producers plus any product taxes (less subsidies) not included in the valuation of output plus net receipts of primary income (compensation of employees and property income) from abroad. GNI, calculated in national currency, is usually converted to U.S. dollars at official exchange rates for comparisons across economies. The World Bank Atlas method is used to smooth fluctuations in prices and exchange rates. It averages the exchange rate for a given year and the two preceding years, adjusted for differences in rates of inflation between the country and the Euro area, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States. (World Bank) Gross primary, secondary, and tertiary enrollment is the combined number of students enrolled in primary, secondary, and tertiary levels of education, regardless of age, as a percentage of the population of official school age for the three levels. (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization Institute for Statistics) Households with a television are the percentage of households with a television (a standalone device capable of receiving broadcast television signals using such access means as over-the-air reception, cable, or satellite).

(International Telecommunication Union) Level of competition, international long distance service, is the level of competition for international long distance telephone calls (M = monopoly, P = partial competition, C = full competition). (International Telecommunication Union and World Bank) Level of competition, Internet service, is the level of competition for retail Internet access service (M = monopoly, P = partial competition, C = full competition). (International Telecommunication Union and World Bank) Level of competition, mobile telephone service, is the level of competition for digital cellular mobile services (M = monopoly, P = partial competition, C = full competition). (International Telecommunication Union and World Bank) Mobile cellular and fixed-line subscribers per employee are telephone subscribers (fixed-line plus mobile) divided by the total number of telecommunications employees. (International Telecommunication Union) Mobile cellular subscriptions are the number of subscriptions—including postpaid and prepaid subscriptions—to a public mobile telephone service using cellular technology that provides access to the public switched telephone network. (International Telecommunication Union) Mobile cellular prepaid tariff is based on the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development’s low-user definition, which includes the cost of monthly mobile use for 25 outgoing calls per month spread over the same network, other mobile networks, and mobile to fixed-line calls and during peak, off-peak, and weekend times as well as 30 text messages per month.

Data are midyear estimates. (World Bank) Population covered by mobile cellular network is the percentage of people who live within areas served by a mobile cellular signal regardless of whether they use it. (International Telecommunication Union) Residential fixed-line tariff is the monthly subscription charge plus the cost of 30 three-minute local calls (15 peak and 15 off-peak). (International Telecommunication Union) Secure Internet servers are the number of servers using encryption technology for Internet transactions. Data listed for 2009 are for December 2010. (Netcraft) Separate telecommunications regulator indicates whether the country has a separate telecommunications regulator. (International Telecommunication Union) Status of main fixed-line telephone operator indicates whether the incumbent fixed-line operator is a public or private entity. Public refers to a fully state-owned operator, private refers to a fully private operator, and mixed refers to a partially private operator.
