An approach for realizing Future Internet with cognitive technologies

Telecommunications and information technology will be parts of the Future Internet infrastructures. It will be characterized by powerful and complex network infrastructures, advanced applications, services and content, efficient power management as well as extensions in the business model. These characteristics entail that the management of the Future Internet world will be more complex, compared to today. The introduction of cognitive systems is believed to be an efficient response to the complexity. In this respect, the aims and contribution of this paper is to provide an approach for realizing the Future Internet era by means of cognitive systems. The basis and foundation will be work conducted in the area of cognitive wireless networks. This work constitutes a solid basis, on which the Future Internet era can be realized, through suitable expansions.
