  • Abstract
    The results from feature interaction can be seen as a problem from different perspectives. The two primary perspectives are from the end user´s view and the application developer´s view. This article pursues solutions that originate from the applications designer´s view. Even within this view, there are different ways to approach the feature interaction problem. These solutions, in turn, have the potential to introduce new problems. Each of these views lead to different solutions to our problem. The solution to the feature interaction has three parts. First, avoid undesirable interactions whenever possible. Second, detect interactions when they occur. Finally, resolve the interactions as quickly as possible. Preferably, this final step should be automated. Feature interactions will occur in real-time, and must be handled on-the-fly for our communication networks to perform as expected by the end user
