Course content
Doctoral students will work on the research of existing literature on a predefined topic from the field of ambient intelligence, intelligent environments, or suitably chosen application areas (eg Ambient Assisted Living or Smart Learning Environments) and will elaborate on the basis of this research a scientific discussion of 15-20 pages and preset structure. In application-oriented themes, one of the tools for modeling and simulating the proposed intelligent environment will be used to demonstrate its core functionality. The thesis of this paper will have to be presented and defended by the Ph.D. before the Examination Board in the final examination of the subject.

Learning outcomes
The vision of Ambient Intelligence is the notion that people will operate in an environment of intelligent and intuitively usable interfaces to processors located in all types of objects. Such a technologically-enriched intelligent environment will be able to recognize the presence of specific individuals and will react to their presence in an unobtrusive manner, usually fully integrated into the given situation. The course is intended to help the students orient in the rapidly developing areas of ambient intelligence and intelligent environments, to draw attention to the most important problems and applications in this field and to show them the possibilities that research of ambient intelligence brings.
