Fabrizio Granelli, DISI, University of Trento (granelli@disi.unitn.it)
Hajime Nakamura, KDDI R&D Labs. Inc. (nakamura@kddilabs.jp)
 | Fabrizio Granelli received his Laurea (M.S.) degree in Electronic Engineering from the University of Genoa, Italy, in 1997, with a thesis on video coding, awarded with the TELECOM Italy prize, and Ph.D. in Electronic Engineering and Computer Science from the same university in 2001. Since 2000, he has carried on his teaching activity as Assistant Professor at the Dept. of Information Engineering and Computer Science (DISI) of the University of Trento (Italy) and coordinator of the Networking Research Lab. AS of 2008, he is the deputy head of the academic council in Information Engineering.
His main research activities are in the field of networking, with particular reference to wireless networks (performance optimization, ad hoc networks modeling), quality of service architectures (DiffServ, ARM/AQM), cross-layering and multimedia delivery. He has authored more than 80 papers published in several international journals and conferences.
Dr. Granelli was a visiting professor at the State University of Campinas in August 2004, and is currently vice-chair of the IEEE Communication Systems Integration and Modeling Technical Committee. He was co-chair of the IEEE International Workshop on Computer-Aided Modeling and Design of Communication Links and Networks (CAMAD'04). He is general vice-chair of the First International Conference on Wireless Internet (WICON'05), general chair of 11th International Workshop on Computer-Aided Modeling and Design of Communication Links and Networks (CAMAD'06) and TPC co-chair of CAMAD'08. He is TPC co-chair of Globecom 2007 Symposium on "Performance Modeling, QoS and Reliability" and Globecom 2008 Symposium on "Communications QoS, Reliability and Performance Modeling."
Dr. Granelli is a Senior Member of IEEE and associate editor of IEEE Communications Letters and IEEE Communications Surveys and Tutorials.
|  | Hajime Nakamura received B.E., M.E. and Ph.D. degrees from Waseda University, Tokyo in 1988, 1990, and 2002, respectively. He joined the Research and Development Laboratories of Kokusai Denshin Denwa Company Ltd. (currently KDDI) in 1990, and has engaged in research on communications network design and planning, including traffic control, packet and path routing, failure restoration, pricing, performance evaluation and quality of experience. His research interests cover the architecture of next-generation telecommunication networks. He is currently a senior manager of the Communications Network Planning Laboratory of KDDI R&D Laboratories, Inc. He received the Young Engineer Award of the IEICE in 1996, Best Paper Awards of the IEICE in 1998 and 2002, Information Network Research Awards of the IEICE in 2002 and 2006, Best Paper Award of APSITT 2005 and so forth.
Dr. Nakamura was TPC co-chair of the 9th International Symposium on Wireless Personal Multimedia Communications (WPMC 2006), TPC co-chair of International Workshop on Satellite and Space Communications 2007 (IWSSC 2007), Tutorial co-chair of The Asia-Pacific Network Operations and Management Symposium 2007 (APNOMS 2007), and TPC member of more than twenty IEEE international conferences. He was editor of IEICE transactions on communications in 2003-2004 and is vice-chair of IEICE Communications Society Editorial Board in 2007-2008. Dr. Nakamura is Member of IEEE and IEICE. |
