Career History March 2012 - Present
Network Designer at Law and Commercial 鍖rms - Freelance service
Design, con鍖guration and test of mixed wired/wireless infrastructure for general purpose use. Im-
provement of the overall network e鍖ciency by application of content 鍖ltering (i.e. URL and instant
messaging services blocking). Sometimes I was also asked to take care of QoS and bandwidth
management within the network itself.

Freelance Service
The goal of my thesis research was to build an open-source tool, useful for the student, for evaluating
the Bit Error Rates of the digital modulations (in real-time also) over the wired (AWGN) and the
wireless channels both modeled in a mathematical way combining Python with the GNU Radio
platform. Altough I 鍖nished my thesis research a long time ago, I still actively participate in the
GNU Radio community.

Activities Design and implementation of a dual system consisting of a Voltage/Frequency converter and a
Frequency/Voltage converter.
Design and implementation of a short-range, low-cost TX/RX Radio System operating in the
RF spectrum.
Design of a Java-based client/server application involving a SQL database, threads and GUIs.
The project consisted in a phonebook, with di鍖erent blank spaces to 鍖ll in the main GUI(Name,
address, phone number and so on), interfacing with a SQL database running on the server side.
The client was able to recall data from the database and to delete stored data as well through
SQL queries nested in the java code as simple strings. Being multi-threaded, the user was also
able to launch di鍖erent instances of the same application. The entire work was then reverse-
engineered and described in every single detail with an UML 鍖ow graph as required from my
teacher.
Tweaking of the mozillapackager.py script, part of the Ubuntuzilla Project, to retrieve the
latest versions(localized in di鍖erent languages) of the Mozilla Foundation software(i.e. Firefox,
Thunderbird and Seamonkey). After being downloaded, the binary 鍖les are packaged in the
*.deb 鍖le format so that a debian-based Linux distribution user is able to install/uninstall the
application in a very simple way.
Deploying open-source code on the Internet in my spare time.
3. Other Full availability to work on site and to move abroad as well.
