Training

My experience in professional and academic training, as well as my vocation to transmit knowledge and capability for dialogue has allowed me to deal with this task in a very gratifying way.

I taught higher level courses, ranging from higher education to university masters, seminars, and conferences. In training activities I have always worked with organizations and universities with an excellent reputation. I have always been committed to provide the highest level and quality of service, as I have always considered this task as extremely delicate and challenging.

Unlike teaching, training transmits personal experiences. Topics ranged from programming techniques to software and systems design, from marketing to security, from blockchain to cryptocurrencies, from privacy to training of trainers. Classes were held both in Italian and English languages.

To date I have collected about 14,000 hours on lectures, in addition to e-learning activities, many of which I produced. My results, in terms of success of these activities, have always been exeptional and I am very pleased to have contributed to the personal success of many people.

Development

New emerging systems allow to implement new classes of products.

The matching of dedicated hardware, mobile, cloud and desktop devices offers opportunities unpredictable just a few years ago.

The realization times are reduced due to systems based on standard costs and are now accessible to all budgets.

From the software perspective, applications can be created on desktop environments (Windows, Linux and MacOS)*, and on mobile devices (Android and iOS)*. Integrating everything with cloud and other web-based solutions.

As some projects come to life, they are detached and become spin-off, like myB2B and Flipp.

Consulting

The large experience gained during thirty years in the computer industry and business, allows me to offer senior advisory services, supporting my customers in the assessment and definition of their needs in ICT, Big Data and IoT topics.

At the moment my main action is addressed on the transition from internalized client-server to building cloud solutions, considering the problems and troubles arising from the use of heterogeneous devices and security.

Activities

Over the years I have gained expertise in many specializations, and I still continue my training following high-profile classes.
Until now I dealt mainly on applications, solutions and services to companies, professionals and institutions, both on desktop, mobile and web side.

I share my experience in classes, mainly to postgraduate students, where I teach programming techniques and subjects related to software, data science and web marketing.

At the moment my focus is on the emerging IoT (Internet of Things) and Industry 4.0 market that brings together my knowledge of hardware, software and marketing.

My vision is wide-ranging, involving a variety of technologies in order to achieve often unconventional but effective solutions, thanks to the use of methodologies such as TRIZ.

Informal resume

My university studies began at University of Naples, where I enrolled in Electronics engineering. Then I won a scholarship in the United States at the Massachusetts of Technology in Cambridge, MA. I graduated in Electrical Engineering with a major in Computer Science at MIT in 1988.

After graduating, I continued my education at MIT and earned the titles of Master of Science (M.S.) in Computer Science and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Software Engineering.

Except for a short time, I have worked on my own or for a company in IT and telecommunications.

In the last 18 years I have shared my experience as a lecturer and trainer in higher education classes and university masters, working with both universities and high profile training organizations. I have under my belt about 14,000 hours of presence in the classroom.

At the moment I am working on IoT (Internet of Things), designing and creating hardware and multiplatform software solutions.

In the last four years I have achieved certifications on Big Data and Machine Learning  at the University of California – Berkeley Internet of Things at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Data Science at the Harvard University, where I am pursuing a Master Degree, and Cybersecurity at the Rochester Institute of Technology.

I was issued a patent for an LED lighting system with extremely high energy savings.

Since 2000 I have lived and worked near Padua.

I am a member of several associations, including: MIT Alumni; MIT Professional, IEEE, Computer Society, ACM, The Harvard Big Data Group, The Harvard Data Science Initiative. I was appointed as honorary member of the School of Minoprio Alumni Association.

Home

Welcome to my website.

I am an electrical engineer strongly dedicated to computer science and computer engineering with a keen inclination towards electronics.

I am pursuing a Master Degree in Data Science.

I live and work in Italy, in Padua area. Currently I’m engaged with web apps development, big data and Internet of Things. At present, my business is located in Italy, France and Switzerland, but I’m looking for further expansion.

I teach in Higher Education and post-graduate courses cooperating with relevant organizations and universities.
