Domenico Siracusa

Domenico Siracusa Affiliated Fellow

Domenico Siracusa is associate professor at the Department of Information Engineering and Computer Science (DISI) of the University of Trento and affiliated fellow at the Secure code liFEcycle for applications and netWoRking (SaFEWaRe) research unit at Fondazione Bruno Kessler (FBK). Previously, he was the head of the Unit.

He received his Master’s Degree in Telecommunication Engineering and his PhD in Information Technology both at Politecnico di Milano, respectively in 2008 and 2012. In 2022 he earned the Executive MBA in Business Innovation at the MIB Trieste School of Management.

His research interests include infrastructure security and robustness, service orchestration and management, cloud and fog computing, SDN/NFV and virtualization. Domenico authored more than 100 publications appeared in international peer reviewed journals and in major conferences on computing and networking technologies.

Domenico acted as proposal leader and scientific manager for both competitive EU-funded projects and commercial activities with important technology vendors. He was project manager and technical leader of the H2020 EU-Korea DECENTER, H2020 ACINO and EIT Digital DigiFlow projects, and was involved as principal investigator, workpackage leader or contributor in other FP7/H2020, EIT digital and commercial projects.
