Abstract(in English) As content delivered on the Internet becomes richer, the use of content delivery service in which users pay fee for each content to content provider increases. For ISPs, on the other hand, the increase of investment cost required to maintain stable quality is a problem, and ISPs need to cover the investment cost from content providers because increasing fee to users is difficult. However, content providers usually pay access fee whose increase ratio diminishes as the volume of data transmitted increases, so profit enough to cover the required investment cost for ISPs is not distributed to ISPs. For this problem, content charging in which ISPs charge fee for each content delivery to content providers seems effective. However, it is anticipated that content providers switch to other ISPs if an ISP introduces content charge, so introducing content charge does not always increase the revenue of ISPs. This paper investigates the feasibility of content charge by ISPs and evaluates the effect of content charge by modeling the relationship between content providers and ISPs using two-stage Stackelberg game.
