Abstract
This article consists of presentation slides on the following subject. This paper presents an application of the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) for technology policy. Developing countries face the great challenge to bridge their internal digital divide. However, most studies seeking to bridge this gap offer only recommendations at the policy level. With the use of AHP as a methodology we can provide appropriate information about which technologies will have the greatest impact on bridging this gap.
