The APRAISE Summer School for postgraduate students and Bologna Master students, took place between the 25th – 29th of August 2014 in Ljubljana, Slovenia, and was hosted by the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, University of Ljubljana. The APRAISE Summer School enabled students to exchange experiences and ideas and to get new knowledge on different topics derived from the project itself.
