摘      要：This article introduces the architecture and mechanisms of the self-managing tuture Internet currently Deng aevelopea by the European Union Seventh Framework Programme （FP7） project EFIPSANS. In this architecture, network functions are divided into four planes： decision, dissemination, discovery, and data. Decision Elements （DEs）, managed entities, and other information collecting entities at different planes comprise control loops of four layers： the protocol layer, the function layer, the node layer, and the network layer. DEs and their related control loops contribute to network self-management and self-maintenance. This greatly reduces the need for intervention in the network, thus reducing costs and improving user experience. The European Telecommunications Standards Institute （ETSI） has now established a new Industry Specification Group to standardize the self-managing Internet.
