Method comprising: receiving information on a current system state; retrieving stored triples for a configuration parameter of the system; predicting an expected value of the configuration parameter based on the current state and the stored triples; receiving a calculated optimized value for the configuration parameter; reducing a potential degradation of a system performance based on the expected value and the calculated optimized value, wherein each of the triples comprises an information on a previous system state, an applied value of the configuration parameter, and a previous OCRS for the configuration parameter; each of the OCRSs indicates a respective range of previously desired values for the configuration parameter; the potential deterioration compares a first performance of the system under an assumption that none of the cognitive functions has manipulative behavior with a second performance of the system under an assumption that at least one of the cognitive functions has manipulative behavior.

Reducing system degradation caused by manipulative network functions

An apparatus and a method are provided, by which a controller receives configuration sets from at least two network automation functions, each network automation function determining the configuration set such that it is optimal for achieving an objective of the network automation function. The controller determines an optimal network configuration based on the configuration sets received from the at least two network automation functions.

Coordination and control mechanism for conflict resolution for network automation functions

Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for determining and/or applying optimal configurations in cognitive autonomous networks (CANs) are provided.
