Short Bio
I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Udine (Cycle XXVI) on May, 12
2014. My thesis title is "An Abstract Interpretation Framework for Diagnosis and Verification
of Timed Concurrent Constraint Languages" and it was written under the supervision of Marco
Comini and Alicia Villanueva. I am a member of the F.Li.T (Formal Light-Weight Tools) group
at the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science of the University of Udine (Italy) and
I also collaborate with the ELP (Extensions of Logic Programming) group at the Department of
Information Systems and Computation of the Technical University of Valencia (Spain). Furthermore,
from 2011, I am a member of the Association for Logic Programming (ALP).
I received my Bachelor’s degree (Laurea Triennale) and Master degree (Laurea Specialistica) in
Computer Science from the University of Udine, in July 2008 and October 2010, respectively, both
with full marks and honors (110/110 cum laude). I was also a student at the scientific class of the
Scuola Superiore dell’University of Udine (Excellence University Institute), and I received my degree
in June 2011 with full marks and honors (110/110 cum laude).
My research interests include:
{ automatic debugging, verification and analysis of concurrent, reactive and temporal systems
{ semantics of declarative languages
{ the concurrent constraint paradigm
{ abstract interpretation
{ temporal logics
