Abstract
My doctoral research proposal is a cross-field project between Information Systems (IS) architecture and Distributed Systems Computing applied to Industry 4.0 (I4.0) applications. It combines the configuration of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) (e.g., smart IoT devices) like I4.0 components with a business delivery orientation. The scientific problem of this Ph.D. project is the lack of interconnectivity and alignment of I4.0 ICT to the business strategy and business intents. The notion of intent is very crucial regarding business requirements, as it allows all devices and the equipment under consideration to be connected to business and other needs, the notion has already gained traction in many fields, for instance, Intent-Based Networking (IBN) allows the configuration of the physical and virtual network infrastructure depending on business strategies requirements. To our knowledge, the components of I4.0 applications have not leveraged this important concept yet. Therefore, our objective is to encompass both business strategy and digital technologies deployed to support the I4.0 vision using an intentional perspective, to facilitate the use and configuration of I4.0 components through the automation of administration, and, flexible on-demand reconfiguration.
