Network configuration switcher

Cooperation Interface Manager (CIM): Multiple cell cooperation can be done by implementing cooperation interfaces dictated by the cell managing the cooperation. These interfaces allow the cell responsible of cooperation management to communicate with the participant cells without getting into their implementation details. Like any other cell, the cooperation manager cell is capable of evolution and consequently new cooperation interfaces can be registered. The cooperation participants selects the most appropriate cooperation interface to use in the same way cells select the most appropriate remote interface to use. Accordingly, CIM allows the registration/de-registration of the cooperation interfaces at runtime. It maintains a List of Cooperation Interface when the cells request to cooperate

Using the network configuration switcher paradigm, we note that the NC, similar to the biological cell, will have a life cycle where NC starts at its infancy with minimal experience, and through learning, the NC experience will mature. This gained experience can be transferred to other naŻve NCs introducing the phenomenon of generational learning among NCs.
