Andrea Vitaletti earned a Ph.D. in Computer Engineering from SAPIENZA University of Rome in 2002. During his Ph.D. and in the following years he visited some of the main international research centers such as ETHZ (CH) and AT&T Research Labs (USA). He is currently Assistant professor (Ricercatore non confermato) in Computer Engineering at (DIS) Dipartimento di Informatica e Sistemistica "Antonio Ruberti" – SAPIENZA University of Rome. He has (co-)authored more than 30 papers in journals and international conferences (h-index 9: Harzing's Publish or Perish, key: Andrea Vitaletti), mainly in the area of algorithms and protocols for wireless and sensor networks. His current research interests concern the design and the analysis of efficient algorithms and protocols for resource constrained networks (mainly distributed and localized algorithms) and their application to wireless sensor networks. He has been reviewer for several international conferences and journals and PC of some international conferences, such as Mobile HCI, Pervasive and the Internet of Things. Recently he has been involved in the following EU projects as researcher and team leader: AEOLUS, DELIS, PERADA, SOFIA e FRONTS. He is the responsible for testbeds at the joint-lab on security research at the University of Rome and he is member of ARTEMISIA. From 2002 to 2005 he has been technical coordinator of the CINI lab in Rome. He has carried out applied industrial research on wireless and pervasive systems at ETNOTEAM ltd labs for 9 years. In 2002 e founded the SME WLAB (http://www.w-lab.it/) and he is currently the CEO. The effectiveness of his applied research activity is witnessed by 2 patents and 4 patent applications and by some awards: Winner of media and communication category at Wonderland Contest 2000, Innovation Prize at Simagine 2002, Bronze Award at Simagine 2004 and Third place award in the Start Cup "Roma 2006/2007". He leads e research group of 3 Ph.D students and 5 master students in the Wireless Sensor Networks lab at DIS. Since 2002 he teaches on network topics at SAPIENZA University of Rome and he has supervised more than 80 master thesis.
