Education



Research Interests


I'm member of the DESSERT Research Group at the University of Naples Federico II (UNINA), and I'm an active collaborator of the CINI-ITEM "Carlo Savy" Laboratory of Naples. CINI is a consortium of 38 Italian Universities, based in Rome.

I'm co-founder of Critiware S.r.l., an start-up company delivering services for critical systems engineering.

My main research interests include:

  • Dependability Assessment of critical systems
  • Model-based verification and log-based failure analysis
  • Wireless Sensor Networks and Mobile Computing


Teaching

  • Current Courses:
    • Real-Time Systems, 1st year of the M.S. in Automation Engineering at UNINA.
    • Operating Systems, 2nd year of the B.S. in Computer Engineering at UNINA.
  • Past Courses
    • Base Programming, 1st year of the B.S. in Electronic Engineering at the "Accademia Aeronautica", Naples, Italy.
    • Advanced Programming, 1st year of the M.S. in Systems Engineering at UNINA.
