Transformation Of The Infrastructure From Adsl To Ftth: Institutional Coordination And Spatial Inequalities Comparative Analysis Of Algerian Metropolises (oran, Algiers, Annaba)
Authors : Boumelah Aziza .
Abstract
Abstract: This research compares Algérie Télécom's FTTH deployment in Oran, Algiers, and Annaba. It analyzes how urban planning, civil engineering, and social housing programs impact the transition from ADSL. The methodology relies on a literature review (ARPCE reports, technical documents) and quantitative modeling (logistic regression, SAR) across 78 spatial units. Findings reveal that recent social housing areas are prioritized (odds ratio ≈ 6.5), unlike dense historic centers. Population density is not a decisive predictor here. Algiers shows a lower probability of coverage compared to Oran and Annaba under identical characteristics. The study proposes a spatial typology and introduces the concept of institutional cost pooling through the systematic integration of fiber into public housing
