About
I am an Italian computer scientist and at the end of 2008 I moved to the University of Bologna. I’m currently assigned to the Centre for the Development and Management of University Computer Services (CeSIA). I still co-chair the Open Grid Forum GLUE Working Group.
Prior to that, I worked for seven years (2002-2008) at CNAF, the INFN national centre for telematics and informatics. I had been always involved in EU-funded projects related to Grid Computing. The last contribution was in the context of the OGF-Europe project where I lead the In-Depth Tutorials and I contributed in several ways to the OGF standardization activity. Previously, I participated in the DataTAG project (FEB2002 – MAR2004), area of information modeling of Grid resources (GLUE Schema) and Grid monitoring (GridICE); I worked in the framework of the EGEE project, JRA1 activity (APR2004 – MAR2006); I lead the JRA2 activity of the OMII-Europe project (MAG2006 – APR2008).
My activity in the research area started in 2001, when I was an exchange student at the Telecommunications Laboratory of Lappeenranta University of Technology (Finland) for preparing my Master thesis. The topic was comparing experimental vs. simulated results of DiffServ-enabled IP networks. I conducted my simulations using NS2 and as I was not satisfied with the native DiffServ module, I improved it and contributed to the NS2 community. My first conference paper is the result of this work.
In 2001, I received my degree (M.Sc.) in Computer Engineering from the University of Pisa. In 2006, I successfully defended my Ph.D. thesis at Department of Computer Science of the University of Bologna.
