W

Answer 1

A better design is.

interface Generic<T> {
    void foo(T t);
}

class Impl implements Generic<MyType> {
    @Override
    public void foo(MyType t) { }
}

Answer 2

interface Base {
    public <T> void foo(T t);
}

class Derived implements Base {
    public <T> void foo(T t){

    }
}

Answer 3

You might want to do something like this :

abstract class Parent {

    public abstract <T extends Object> void foo(T t);

}

public class Implementor extends Parent {

    @Override
    public <MyType> void foo(MyType t) {

    }
}
