We must endeavour to ensure that the benefits of new digital technologies are put at the service of all human individuals and communities, especially those who are most disadvantaged and vulnerable (BENEDICT XVI).
Giuseppe Anastasi is a Full Professor and the Deputy Director of the Department of Information Engineering at the University of Pisa, Italy. His research interests include pervasive computing systems, sensor networks, sustainable computing, and computing for sustainability. He is the founding co-chair of the Pervasive Computing & Networking Laboratory (PerLab), and has contributed to many research programs funded by both national and international institutions. He is a co-editor of two books: Advanced Lectures in Networking (LNCS 2497, Springer, 2002) and Methodologies and Technologies for Networked Enterprises (LNCS 7200, Springer, 2012). He has published over 100 research papers in the area of computer networking and pervasive computing, gathering more than 2000 citations according to Google Scholar (H-index=25, G-index=44). He visited the University of Texas at Arlington (Dept. of Computer Science and Engineering) in Summer 2010, and the Hong Kong Polytechnic University (Dept. of Computing) in Spring 2011.
Giuseppe is an Associate Editor of Sustainable Computing (SUSCOM) and an Area Editor of Pervasive and Mobile Computing (PMC). He is currently serving as General Chair of the IEEE International Workshop on Sensor Networks & Systems for Pervasive Computing (PerSeNS 2013). Previously, he served as Area Editor of Computer Communications (ComCom, 2008-10), General Co-chair of IEEE WoWMoM 2005, Program Chair of IFIP/IEEE SustainIT 2012, IEEE PerCom 2010 and IEEE WoWMoM 2008, Vice Program Chair of IEEE MASS 2007, Workshops Chair of IEEE PerCom 2006, IEEE WoWMoM 2006, and IEEE ICCCN 2007. He is one of the co-founders of the IFIP/IEEE International Conference on Sustainable Internet and ICT for Sustainability (SustainIT) and of the IEEE International Workshop on Sensor Networks and Systems for Pervasive Computing (PerSeNS), co-located with IEEE PerCom. Currently, he is the representative of his department within Informatics Europe, the association of Computer Science and IT departments in Europe and neighbouring areas. He has been a member of the IEEE Computer Society since 1994.
Giuseppe received the M.Sc. degree in Electrical Engineering, and the Ph.D. degree in Computer Engineering, both from the University of Pisa, in 1990 and 1995, respectively.
