Introducing intents to the OODA-loop

Together with Ericsson AB, we are using the design science framework when investigating how to create an intent-driven system for their business support system and its business studio. The aim is to present our initial results on how an extended OODA-loop can be used to realize a robust, but still flexible, software architecture for an intent-driven system. We explain how an extended OODA-loop is constructed and provide suggestions of how different part of it can be implemented. The initial results are promising but further research is needed to use the extended OODA-loop as reusable components in intent-driven systems. Our next step is to extend the generic methods with knowledge representation and reasoning capabilities. © 2019 The Author(s). Published by Elsevier B.V.
