9. Corroboration / validation of the subject’s content in relation to the expectations
coming from representatives of the epistemic community, of the professional
associations and of the representative employers in the program’s field.
 The subject has been a key element of recent EU research projects (ComVantage, SUPER)
which are involved here as exemplary cases, motivational background and through the
didactic inclusion of some of their public results
 The subject is a key component of emerging industrial paradigms such as Industry 4.0,
Factories of the Future, Internet of Things
