Scientific value
The scientific value of the project is twofold:

• (a) concrete knowledge on the advantages and potential challenges brought by the application of cutting-edge techniques like Jolie for the development of hybrid systems (IoT-edge-cloud) in the Danish industry (using Sanovo Technology Group for the case study); and
• (b) knowledge on the synergies and future directions for the integration of forefront scientific methods for hybrid systems developed by Danish universities (Jolie, UPPAAL, DCR Graphs). Providing a perspective that comes from concrete industrial experience, with substaintiated needs, has significant potential to influence the future development of both research and industrial development in Denmark.

Capacity building
Companies will thus benefit from an increased number of students that they can hire to satisfy their needs with respect to hybrid systems. Universities benefit by gaining sustainable candidates for PhD positions in future projects connected to this exploration.

Business and societal value
Due to the growth potential in solutions for automation and data intensive processing solutions, this project will strengthen Danish competitiveness through a reduced cost of developing deploying and running IoT and cloud software. Potentially, this could lead to increased export of IT products and services.
