Welcome to my web page. I am a Ph.D. student at the Faculty of Informatics, University of Lugano and a member of Distributed Computing Lab led by Prof. Fernando Pedone. I am also co-supervised by Prof. Antonio Carzaniga.





My research interests are overlay networks, content-based networking and the internals of operating system. In the past I was involved in Colloc project, exploring overlay multicast for multimedia streaming. Currently, I work on Content Based Networking and pub/sub systems.

I am an avid GNU/Linux and other FOSS user. I enjoy hacking stuff, doing low level programming and building things. When I'm not doing these things, I hang out with my peers, read, listen to music and cook.
