In particular, in the presence of distributed cognitive decision-making, increasing complexity may increase potential interference between collaborating networks hence leading to performance, robustness and dependability issues. This paper focuses on a specific form of self-organization denoted here as self-growing, which is believed to provide a foundation for flexible, open and trustworthy networks, relax some of the scalability issues of collaborating cognitive networks, as well as to enable self-organization for resource constrained systems.enconference paper
