We have not tracked much of the revenue in this market, with the exception of that from the revenue assurance software market. This revenue was formerly a part of the business optimisation sub-segment of our revenue management segment. We will include revenue assurance as part of the overall analytics numbers and will also track it separately. Business optimisation numbers will no longer be tracked in the revenue management segment. The analytics software solutions market share report covers four technology areas of the revenue assurance and business analytics sectors. These are: extract load and transformation technologies for the loading of data data schemas specific to the communications industry analytics and business intelligence (BI) tools that enable data mining, machine learning and the creation of analytics models data presentation for visualisation or export to other systems.
