Value Added of ICT Method 1 employing: a) Ratio of ICT Output to total Output by industry b) Total Value Added by industry Pro: Easy to perform Con: Does not correspond to Final Use of ICT Method 2 employing: a) Final Use of ICT less direct Imports, share by product groups b) Input-Output Table, Input-Output Analysis Pro: Corresponds to Final Use of ICT in principle Con: No special ICT-Input-Output table available yet

Summary - ICT by products definition is operational for a satellite system - ICT by industry definition and ICT by product definition are differing considerably - An ICT satellite system based on input-output can give current overviews of ICT in the economy - The satellite system is open to supplements which could for example answer questions of productivity - To extend the framework of regular IOT to a specific IOT of ICT is a challenging task
