Abstract
An apparatus, such as a wireless mobile device dynamically obtains configuration information for a plurality of different network switching decision modules from a server in response to a detected network condition change event. The server responds with network switching decision module configuration information which serves as configuration information for a plurality of different network switching decision modules on the wireless mobile device. The wireless mobile device selectively invokes the plurality of network switching decision modules that are enabled by the obtained configuration information from the server. Each of the enabled network switching decision modules performs its respective switching decision process and outputs its decision in the form of network switching decision data. The network switching decision data from each of the invoked network switching decision modules is evaluated to determine whether switching should occur from a current network to another network.
