5G-specific features, such as massive deployment, heterogeneity, and coexistence, call for innovative dynamic spectrum management mechanisms. Context-aware interoperability and interference control, and their integration, may be crucial to comply with spectrum efficiency and service optimization 5G requirements. Moving from the analysis of research and standardization activities, this article proposes an integrated platform, called C-MIANS, that embeds interference control in standardized context-aware interoperability procedures, toward integration of context awareness into dynamic spectrum management, network selection, and resource allocation.
