Northeastern University Wireless Networks and Embedded Systems Lab






Biography

I am a PhD student in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Northeastern University. I received my B.S. and M.S. in Telecommunications Engineering from the University of Sannio, Benevento (Italy) in 2009 and from the University of Rome "La Sapienza" (Italy) in 2013 respectively. For the next two years I worked in the world of ICT in Italy. Currently, I am conducting research at Wireless Networks and Embedded Systems Laboratory under the supervision of Prof. Tommaso Melodia.
