Current Position
Since September 2007 I have been an ISTS Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Department of Computer Science, Dartmouth College, where I am a member of the Sensor Networks Group.
Short Bio
I received a PhD in Computer Science from University College London in May 2007 and a Laurea in Electronic Engineering (roughly comparable to a British MSc in Electronic Engineering) from the University of Bologna in December 2002.
From June to December 2002 I prepared my Master degree thesis at the Department of Computer Science of University College London, working as research assistant on the XMIDDLE project, focussing on the aspects related to data synchronization. After receiving my Master degree, I spent a period in industry working as software engineer at E-Tree (Treviso, Italy) and at Kion (Bologna, Italy). Then, during summer 2003 I did an internship at the Institut National de Recherche en Informatique et en Automatique (INRIA), the National French Research Institute in Computer Science and Automation, at Rocquencourt, near Paris in the Arles group headed by Dr. Valerie Issarny.
I started my PhD at UCL in October 2003 under the supervision of Dr. Cecilia Mascolo. In October 2005 I became a Research Fellow involved in the CREAM project. I held this position until August 2007, when I joined Dartmouth as Post-doctoral Fellow.
On a more personal note, I am originally from the beautiful city of Bologna, Italy. Besides computers and networks, I like reading good books (almost everything from sci-fi to philosophy, one day I will write down the list of my favourite books), eating good food (I am a dedicate advocate of original Italian food, but I also like other cousines), running (when I am able to overcome the inertial force), and travelling (I like wandering in cities discovering their architecture). Recently, I also got interested in the history of computing (I know, it is not really "besides computers") and biology (in particular, mathematical biology).
