INTEND: Human-Like Intelligence for Intent-Based Data Operations in the Cognitive Computing Continuum

Abstract

This paper outlines a research roadmap of the INTEND project towards the development of a cognitive computing continuum that leverages human-like intelligence for intent-based data operations. The primary objective of this initiative is to create a system that can adapt dynamically to varying contexts by understanding and acting upon the intents of stakeholders in a decentralised and strategic manner. The project focuses on three main research pillars: resource management through intelligent agents, decentralised decision-making inspired by human cognitive processes, and enhancing human-AI interaction using Generative AI technologies.
