Since November 2009 I'm a PhD student at the computer science department at Télécom ParisTech in Paris, under the supervision of Dario Rossi. The title of my thesis is "Congestion control of Peer-to-peer services".
In early 2009 I got the graduation from the Politecnico di Torino, discussing the Master Thesis "NetMine: a framework to analyze network traffic data", at the end of a project in the network traffic analysis field, developed in participation with the Data Base and Data Mining Group.
Here you can find my Curriculum Vitae, both in English and in French
