Introduction to the Sensoria Case Studies

The foundational research carried out in Sensoria has been steered by a number of case studies for ensuring applicability of Sensoria methods and meeting expectations of society and the economy. In this chapter, we introduce these case studies. Three of the case studies came from industrial applications in automotive, finance and telecommunication domains; one came from an academic application for distributed e-learning and course management. Having in mind the relevance that these areas have in society and the economy, the above case studies have been extensively used in Sensoria during the whole project.
