Abstract

This research project develops a Business Architecture pattern with its artefacts for designing the organisational structure of a factory dedicated to the production of swarms of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in the context of Industry 4.0. To formalise and validate the pattern, the Conceive, Design, Implement and Operate (CDIO) methodology is adopted. Within this framework, architectural solutions are proposed that integrate a co-intelligence artefact (human-machine cooperation) into decision-making processes, with the aim of boosting productivity, streamlining operations and transforming business models. The resulting pattern articulates intelligent and interconnected systems and technologies specific to Industry 4.0, and is scalable and adaptable.
