# Network Library Phase 3: Message Routing Implementation Tasks
This document breaks down the Phase 3 implementation plan into specific tasks to be completed. Each task represents a discrete unit of work that can be implemented and tested independently.
## 1. Core Routing Types and Interfaces
- [ ] Create `RouteInfo` interface to represent routing information
- [ ] Create `RoutingTable` interface for route storage and retrieval
- [ ] Define `IMessageRouter` interface with core routing methods
- [ ] Create `RoutingStrategy` enum for different routing approaches
- [ ] Define `RoutingConfig` interface for router configuration
## 2. Basic Routing Table Implementation
- [ ] Implement `BasicRoutingTable` class
- [ ] Add methods for adding, retrieving, and removing routes
- [ ] Implement route filtering functionality
- [ ] Add utility methods for finding optimal routes
- [ ] Create comprehensive unit tests for routing table
## 3. Message Priority and Batching
- [ ] Implement `PriorityQueue` class for message prioritization
- [ ] Create `MessageBatch` class for grouping related messages
- [ ] Implement batching logic with configurable intervals
- [ ] Add priority-based message processing
- [ ] Create unit tests for priority queue and batching
## 4. Base Message Router
- [ ] Implement abstract `BaseMessageRouter` class
- [ ] Add support for multiple routing tables
- [ ] Implement route finding across tables
