Enzo Baccarelli received the Electronics Engineering degree (laurea) ''cum Laude'' from University "La Sapienza" of Rome in 1989 and then acquired the Ph.D.degree and Post-Ph.D.degree in Information and Communication Engineering in 1993 and 1995, respectively. He has been Assistant Professor (1996-1998) and, then, Associate Professor (1998-2004) at the INFOCOM Dept. of the Engineering Faculty of the University "La Sapienza" of Rome. Since 2004, he is full professor in Telecommunication & Networking Engineering at the INFOCOM Dpt. (currently, DIET Dpt.) of the University "Sapienza" of Rome. He spent 1994 and 1996 as visiting research at the Telcordia Labs. (ex Bell Labs.) of Morristown, New Jersey, USA. His research experience and interests are in the areas of Statistical Signal Processing for Digital Communication, Information Theory and Coding and design of integrated communication/computing distributed platforms for the broadband wireless/wired Internet-based networks, with application to the Cloud and Fog computing areas. In particular, he focuses on the design and deployment of multi-access architectures, multi-antenna access networks, and wired (xDSL/PON) broadband networks. This research activity produced over 150 papers published by peer-referred IEEE international journals and conferences and two international patents on nonlinear data equalizers for fast-fading mobile links. He is co-author of the contributions: i)"Broadband Wireless Access Networks : A Roadmap on Emerging Trends and Standards", published in the book : Broadband Services to Business and Communities: User Needs, Business Models and Technologies, edit by Wiley, March 2005; ii) "QoS-constrained optimal energy-management minimizing download-times over Multi-Channel Wireless Links", published in the book: Handbook of Wireless Mesh Networks and Sensor Networks, McGraw Hill, 2009; iii) " A competitive approach for designing Multi-Antenna Cognitive Access Networks", published in the book Cognitive Radio Systems, In-Tech Ed., 2010; iv) “Energy-saving QoS resource management of virtualized networked data centers for Big Data Stream Computing”,in: Emerging Research in Cloud Distributed Computing Systems, Susmit Bagchi (Ed.), IGI Global, 2015; and, v) “Resource scheduling for Energy-Aware reconfigurable Internet Data Centers”, in: Innovative Research and Applications in Next-Generation High Performance Computing, Qusay F. Hassan (Ed.), IGI Global, 2016. His academic duties include teaching of three graduate courses in Data Communication, Telecommunication Engineering and Broadband Networking. This activity given arise to the publication of several text books, namely, Broadband Wired Networks ( Ed.Ingegneria 2000, 2002), Complements and Exercises of Information Theory and Coding (Ed. Ingegneria2000, 1998), Elements of Signal Analysis, Probability and Stochastic Processes (Ed. Ingegneria2000, 2000), Principles of Data Transmissions for Radio Channels (Ed. IEEE Press, 2001), Elements of Detection and Estimation for Engineers (Ed. Ingegneria2000, 2001), Elements of Information Theory and Coding (Ed. Ingegneria2000, 2002), Broadband Wired Systems (Ed. Ingegneria2000, 2005), Communication Fundamentals (Ed. Esculapio, 2010).
