Each IXP uses different hardware and software to monitor its network so that the f format of network monitoring data is typically unique to one IXP. Consequently, a monitoring tool developed for one IXP and specific to its infrastructure cannot be shared and used by another IXP without major changes. Further, since IXPs develop th eir own disparate set of tools, each of which has a different method for outputting data, it is quite difficult if not im possible to compare data from different IXPs side by side. The LINX network monitoring project, conducted with the collaboration of the London Internet Exchange Point, a member of the Euro-IX consortium , addresses precisely these problems.

In the course of this study, Internet usage and habits, and demographic Internet penetration based on households and users were studied. In addition, data on geographical Internet penetration was gathered and presented. The findings show that both rural and urban areas utilise Internet connectivity and its benefits. Further, this study reveals that Internet penetration in Kosovo is at satisfactory levels and can be compared to developed countries. Internet penetration based on households is 84.8%, Internet penetration based on users is 76.6%, and geographical Internet penetration shows that on regional roads there are, in average, 9 wireless networks per kilometre. There are various reasons for these levels of penetration, the main ones being Kosovo’s very young median population age who want to follow the latest global trends and Kosovo’s population living abroad who want to stay connected with their families and friends living in Kosovo. According to the findings of this study, most of user habits are comparable to global trends. Social networking and Internet voice communication services are mostly used by women, and this is also a global trend. Kosovars are most active in Facebook, being the main channel for reaching the widest user base. regardless of employment status and family income, Kosovars are a connected society at similar levels as developed countries. Further, the study concludes that there will be a slow down in further Internet penetration in Kosovo due to market maturity. This being the point in time when Kosovo’s institutions, companies, and other organizations will need to further advance general quality of service, e-governance, parental control, market regulation, and information society in general. The study provides additional information that can support the authorities, private sector, international organizations, and potential investors to make policies and decisions based on evidence. Finally, the report suggests that Kosovo’s institutions may wish to consider the establishment of the Ministry of Information Society.
