Short biography

Since December 2014, I am an Associate Professor at the Electrical Engineering and Information Technology Department (Dipartimento di Ingegneria Elettrica e delle Tecnologie dell'Informazione) of the University of Naples “Federico II”. Here I received the M.S. degree in Telecommunications Engineering (2001) and the PhD degree in Computer Engineering (2005).

I am a member of the COMICS (COMputers for Interaction and CommunicationS) Group, one the research groups inside the Dipartimento di Ingegneria Elettrica e delle Tecnologie dell'Informazione.

I was a visiting researcher at the Delft University of Technology (2003-2004), collaborating with the NAS (Network Architectures and Services) group, led by Prof. Piet Van Mieghem.

I was a visiting researcher at the BWN (Broadband Wireless Networking) laboratory of the Georgia Institute of Technology (2005). The BWN lab is headed by Prof. Ian Akyildiz.

In 2004 I was awarded a research funding from the European Doctoral School of Advanced Topics in Networking (SATIN), the instrument employed by E-NEXT (an EU FP6 Network of Excellence) to invest in education of researchers for the European Research Area.
