            Abstract : 
The development of Internet, networking and access technologies is providing a wide variety of Internet interconnection alternatives. The availability of several options in the Internet interconnection market makes it difficult to select the "optimal" alternative for a specific end-user in a specific context. A MCDM based model for structuring and solving the Internet access technologies selection decision problem is proposed. The applicability and validation of this approach is demonstrated in a case study in Mozambique
