Abstract :
A novel billing mechanism is presented in this paper to provide telecommunication service users and advertisers with an effective billing mechanism based on the actual amount of advertisement data being transmitted/displayed. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed system in terms of computational cost and performance.
