The article summarizes the analysis of the selection process between Short messaging services (SMS) and Cell Broadcast (CB) messaging in the context of Denmark based on end user requirements, stakeholder roles and case-based analysis. It demonstrates the many technical, cost-benefit and other tradeoffs needed in supporting the population now with a dependable and wide-spread technology. This research is the basis for a national policy.
