The current Internet has three types of bindings

namely the binding between resource and locators

the binding between control and data

and the binding between identity and locator.The resulting network architecture makes the network being relatively static and rigid.This makes it difficult for the Internet to satisfy the current demands including high-speed

high efficiency

high throughput

and pervasiveness.In addition

this also makes it hard for the network to be scalable and secure

support efficient host mobility

being efficient resource utilization and energy saving.In order to address these issues once and for all

we propose a novel network architecture called smart and cooperative network architecture.The network architecture has three layers

called the smart service layer

the resource adaption layer

and the network component layer.It also has two realms

called the entity realm and the behavior realm.Based on this architecture

we outlined the basic theories of the three layers

respectively

in order to make a future Internet being able to support efficient host mobility

be scalable and secure

being efficient resource utilization and energy saving

and to offer improved user experience.
