Resource Management in Satellite Networks part 2 pot

Curriculum Vitae Dr. Giovanni Giambene Giovanni Giambene was born in Florence, Italy, in 1966. He received the Dr. Ing. degree in Electronics from the University of Florence, Italy, in 1993 and the Ph.D. degree in Telecommunications and Informatics from the University of Florence, Italy, in 1997. From 1994 to 1997, he was with the Electronic En- gineering Department of the University of Florence, Italy. He was Technical External Secretary of the European Community COST 227 Action, entitled “Integrated Space/Terrestrial Mobile Networks”. He also contributed to the Resource Management activity of the Working Group 3000 within the RACE Project, called “Satellite Integration in the Future Mobile Network” (SAINT, RACE 2117). From 1997 to 1998, he was with OTE of the Marconi Group, Florence, Italy, where he was involved in a GSM development program. In the same period he also contributed to the COST 252 Action (“Evolution of Satellite Personal Communications from Second to Future Generation Sys- tems”) research activities by studying the performance of Packet Reservation Multiple Access (PRMA) protocols suitable for supporting voice and data transmissions in low earth orbit mobile satellite systems. In 1999 he joined the Information Engineering Department of the University of Siena, Italy, first as research associate and then as assistant professor. He teaches the advanced course of Telecommunication Networks at the University of Siena. From 1999 to 2003 he participated to the project “Multimedialit`a”, financed by the Ital- ian National Research Council (CNR). From 2000 to 2003, he contributed to the activities of the “Personalised Access to Local Information and services for tOurists” (PALIO) IST Project within the fifth Research Framework of the European Commission (www.palio.dii.unisi.it). At present, he is involved in the SatNEx network of excellence of the FP6 programme in the satellite field, as work package leader of two groups on radio access techniques and cross-layer air interface design (www.satnex.org). He is also vice-Chair of the COST 290 Action (www.cost290.org), entitled “Traffic and QoS Management in Wireless Multimedia Networks” (Wi-QoST).
