Abstract

This paper studies the use of scenario analysis andsystem dynamics in researching mobile peer-to-peer contentdistribution as a new emerging technology. Scenario analysisbounds the uncertainty related to the alternative futures of thetechnology by defining different scenarios. System dynamics isused to build a quantitative model based on the scenarios.During the research process four learning scenarios and aquantitative model depicting a dynamic mobile peer-to-peerfile sharing ecosystem are constructed. As a result we concludethat the usage of scenario analysis is favorable in researchingmobile peer-to-peer content distribution as a new emergingtechnology while the applicability of system dynamics can bequestioned.
