External Presentation (External Speaker)

Abstract:

The purpose of this seminar is to provide an introduction to state-of-art technologies and standards related to mobile multi-hop wireless networks, as broadly classified into three categories depending on their typical coverage: broadband wireless access (BWA), wireless local area networks (WLAN) and wireless personal area networks (WPAN).

Who is Enzo Mingozzi?

Enzo Mingozzi has been an associate professor at the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Pisa, Italy, since January 2005. He received a Laurea (cum laude) degree and a PhD in Computer Systems Engineering in 1995 and 2000, respectively, from the University of Pisa. His research activities span several areas, including design and performance evaluation of multiple access protocols for wireless (multi- hop/mesh) networks, quality of service (QoS) provisioning, and service integration in Internet Protocol (IP) networks. He has been involved in several national (FIRB, PRIN) and international (Eurescom, IST) projects, as well as research projects supported by private industries (Telecom Italia Lab, Nokia, and Nokia Siemens Networks). He also actively took part in the standardization process of HIPERLAN/2 and HIPERACCESS networks in the framework of the ETSI project Broadband Radio Access Networks (BRAN). He is a member of the IEEE and the IEEE Computer Society.
