Within the scope of the ASCENS project technology demonstrations and case studies are planned. The language, tools and methods developed in other work packages will be deployed in solving real world problems. However, each of the case studies brings innovation and improves utilization in its own application domain.

• The use of self-aware and autonomous robots will remove some of the main current limitations of the swarm robotics approach, making it closer to real-world applications.
• The Cloud computing application domain should be equipped with more dynamic resource management where different types of resources are both autonomous and collective, which will significantly improve resource optimization and utilization.
• In the e-Mobility domain, significant improvements are expected in optimizing the e-Vehicle use by treating e-Vehicles not as a separate entity but as a member of a wider ensemble, aware of both individual and collective requirements.

Work package 7 contains the work on these issues.
