Research
I have a reserach grant at the Department of Computer Science and Engineering (DISI) affiliated with the Alma Mater Studiorum–Università di Bologna.
Here I graduated in Computer Science Engineering in October 2004 with a thesis entitled: "Analisi e progetto di un sistema multi-agente per l'interazione avanzata docente studente: Agenti e Servizi".
I got my Ph.D. degree in April 2008, by discussing the thesis "Meta-models, Environment and Layers: Agent-Oriented Engineering of Complex Systems"
My current research activity is mainly focused on:
- Software Engineering
- Agent-Oriented Method Engineering
- Standardisation
- Agent Oriented Software Engineering and Methodologies
- SODA Methodology
- Gaia Methodology
- Multi-Agent Systems
- Software Development Process
Other areas of interest are:
- Security Engineering
- Security Patterns
- Software Architectures
- Architectural Styles
