Abstract

This paper proposes an intent-based management framework for orchestrating In-Network Computing Functions (ICFs) in Cooperative Intelligent Transportation Systems (C-ITS). Software-Defined Vehicles (SDVs) are emerging as key enablers of autonomous driving in C-ITS. SDVs leverage cloud-native platforms (e.g., Kubernetes) with their own in-vehicle networks and Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) communication device. The proposed framework enables high-level intent-driven configuration of networking, security, and application services across SDVs, infrastructure nodes, and Mobile Network Operators (MNOs). A prototype implementation of the ICF framework demonstrates the feasibility of its architecture. This paper discusses several design challenges to guide future research in scalable, intentbased orchestration for SDV ecosystems.
