Since 4/1/2005 I have been a Post Doctoral Researcher in the Institute
for Advanced Computer Studies at the University
of Maryland (click to see Computer Science College ratings) working with Professor V.S. Subrahmanian on different projects the most important of which are LCCD.
I also collaborate with Prof. Antonio Picariello, Doct. Massimiliano Albanese and Doct. Carmine Cesarano of University of Naples Federico II.
I have been a visiting researcher among
I received my PhD in December 2004, from the University of Naples Federico II in Computational and Applied Sciences. My PhD thesis title was "Data Structures and Algorithms for Optimization and Searching Problems in Metric Spaces and Graphs". My advisor was Professor Alfredo Ferro. I worked with him on several research projects, the most important of which were the ctnyu and the bioinformatics. I worked also in collaboration with Doct. Alfredo Pulvirenti,
Doct. Rosalba Giugno, Doct. Sebastiano Battiato and Doct. Gianpiero Di Blasi.
I was a visiting scholar at New York University from January 2004 to July 2004. At NYU, I worked with Professor Dennis Shasha on
a graph matching and graph clustering research project. I have been a visiting researcher at the National Institute of Informatics (NII) - Tokyo Japan (invited by Professor Helmut Prendinger) in September 2007 and at the Dipartimento di Elettronica, Informatica e Sistemisitca (DEIS) - Cosenza Italy (invited by Professor Sergio Greco) in May 2008.
I have attended several schools and classes. The most

In every year of my undergraduated studies I received awards and felloships for highest grades and courseload. I received:
I received my undergraduate degree from the University of Catania in July 24 2001 with 110/110 cum laude. I was the first in my class and the youngest student to ever graduate with a degree in computer science in Catania.
