Daniele Miorandi was born in Rovereto, Italy, in 1977. He received the laurea degree (summa cum laude) in Telecommunication Engineering from the University of Padova, Italy, in 2001, with a thesis on spectral synthesis using finite state machines. He received the Ph.D. degree in Communication Engineering from the University of Padova, Italy, in 2005, with a thesis entitled “Stochastic Modelling of Wireless Ad Hoc Networks”. In 2003/04 he spent one year of his doctoral thesis visiting the MAESTRO project at INRIA Sophia Antipolis (France). In 2004 he had an appointment as “Incaricato di Ricerca” at IEIIT-CNR, Torino (Italy). In Jan. 2005 he joined the Pervasive team at CREATE-NET, Trento (Italy). Since Oct. 2006 is the Head of the Pervasive area. Since Mar. 2007 he is the coordinator of the EU-funded BIONETS project.
My main research interests lie in the area of modelling, performance evaluation and protocol design for wireless networks. The Pervasive Team is currently working on the following projects:
ComplexEnergy: a support action exploring the R&D opportunities at the junction of Energy, ICT and Complex Systems domains, EU FP7 (2009-2011)
EPIWORK: An EU-scale platform for the monitoring and control of pandemic spreading, EU-FET-FP7 (2009-2013)
SMART-NET : SMART-antenna multimode wireless mesh Network, EU-FP7-223937 (2008-2011)
BIONETS : Biologically-Inspired Autonomic Networks and Services, EU-FET-SAC-FP6-027748 (2006-2009)
ACUBE: Ambient Assisted Living, sponsored by the Province of Trento (2008-2010).
WING : Wireless Mesh Networks for Next Generation Internet, joint Italy-Israel project, sponsored by the Italian Ministry of University and Research (2006-2009)
TRITON: WSN for road tunnels monitoring and control, sponsored by the Province of Trento (2008-2010)
I am currently working on:
Information spreading patterns in opportunistic networks
Evolutionary epidemic-style spreading in DTNs
Scaling laws for large-scale wireless networks
Experiments with emergence of network protocols in chemical computing
Architectures and techniques for service evolution
