-Education
-=========
-
-Graduated from high school (“Diploma di maturità scientifica”) from
-“Liceo Scientifico Francesco Redi” of Arezzo (Italy) in 1996, course
-`MFI` (special course with additional mathematics, physics and
-computer science lessons), with top marks (60/60). As part of the
-final exam I presented a short thesis about photo-realistic image
-generation with computers, with emphasis on ray-tracing.
-
-On 2001-10-19 I graduated (“Laurea”) in `computer science`_ from `Pisa
-University`_ with top marks (110/110 e lode); moreover I've been a
-fellow at the `Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa`_ for all the five
-years of university.

-My university thesis__ was about an extension of reinforcement learning
-algorithms using recurrent neural networks for structured data,
-allowing the treatment of (for example) sets of cooperating agents
-with communication networks. Both the thesis (Italian only) and the
-associated ``C++`` library are `available on SourceForge`__. The
-library is released under the terms of the `GNU LGPL`_ and the thesis
-under the terms of the `GNU FDL`_.

-Work experiences
-================
-
-At Hyperborea
--------------
-
-From 2003-02-03 to 2005-06-31 I worked for Hyperborea_.
-
-Working for Hyperborea_, I've learned several design and development
-techniques, and I've polished my knowledge in several
-areas. Specifically:
-
-* Programming in Python_.
-* Integration into a group of developers and coordinating with them.
-* Tracking bug reports (using GNATS_).
-* Distributed development and version tracking (with CVS_).
-* Design and development of web/CGI applications.
-* Integration of relational databases with web applications.
-* Usage of Oracle_ (8 and 9i), PostgreSQL_, MySQL_.
-* XML_ and related technologies: XPath_, XSLT_ and `XSL-FO`_, `XML Schema`_
-
-Among the various projects I participated in, the most significant are:
-
-* “iboFlex”, a framework to ease the development of web applications for
-  data-entry into a database, based on ibo_ (an in-house application
-  server) and XSLT.
-* A general, highly flexible framework for web-based
-  questionnaires. It can handle arbitrarily complex questionnaires,
-  with validation of the answer, and variable presentation (questions
-  and answers in arbitrary order, with multiple formulations for
-  each). It uses XML as representation format and XSLT for
-  presentation.
-* Arianna version 3, a program for the cataloging and description of
-  historical archives, based on XML, for which I've defined the
-  internal representation formats and developed the full-text indexing
-  and searching system.
-* A system for the distributed planning and programming of didactic
-  activities in universities, developed in collaboration with
-  `Università di Milano Bicocca`_, for which I worked on the high-level
-  design and the definition of formats and protocols for data
-  interchange. At the moment the system is being developed by the
-  spin-off TabulaeX_.
-* The `Ecumene project`_, a national projects for the distribution of
-  knowledge about artistic and historical heritage of the Italian
-  Catholic Church, in which I worked on the architectural design, on
-  the design and development of some modules, and on the definition of
-  formats and protocols for data interchange.

-At Blackbit
------------
-
-In 2005 I helped to start `Studio Blackbit`_, and worked there for
-about a year. Among the projects we worked on:
-
-* `Opera Sacra`_, an e-commerce site based on osCommerce_; I had to
-  re-implement most of the templating system to make it sane, and then
-  I wrote the new templates to produce valid (and table-free) `XHTML`
-* a graphical user interface (using Perl_ and `Gtk+2`_) for a
-  `magneto-telluric sensor`_, for the `Institute of Geosciences and
-  Earth Resources`_

-
-At Ask.com
-----------
-
-From 2006-04-04 to 2009-07-31, I've worked for the Italian R&D office of
-`Ask.com`_.
-
-Among the various projects I participated in, the most significant are:
-
-* In the “\ BigNews_\ ” project, I wrote most of the image-selection
-  algorithms, and half of the code that handles images and videos; all
-  the images and videos you see on the BigNews_ site passed through my
-  code
-
-* I lead the “News Triggering” project, whose goal is to identify when
-  a query implies that a user may be interest in the latest news about
-  a topic, and then inject those news into the web results; this
-  project required large amounts of statistical analysis on news
-  clusters, the development of several heuristics to filter out noise,
-  and the implementation of dedicated server software
-
-Working for `Ask.com`_ I've refined my project management abilities,
-and increased my knowledge in several areas. In particular:
-
-* Programming in ``C++``, especially in large-scale projects
-* Handling communications between geographically-dispersed developers:
-  some of my colleagues were 6 and 9 time-zones away
-* Writing code that handles large amounts of data, in as little time
-  as possible
-* Medium-scale system administration: before we hired a real sysadmin,
-  I and a colleague administered 8 servers and helped with the various
-  desktop machines in the office
-* Screen-scraping of dynamic (JavaScript-enhanced) web sites
-* Video downloading and recoding
-* Working around Microsoft-centric policies imposed by the parent
-  company, using free software

-Other experiences
-=================
-
-In 1992 I started development of the program “Scegli la ruota giusta”
-(“Choose the right wheel”) for `tellure Rôta`_ of Formigine (MO,
-Italy). They make and sell wheels for industrial applications; the
-program was to be put on counters of hardware stores, so that
-customers could use it to choose, among the various products, the best
-wheel (in terms of both pricing and performance) for their
-application. The first version was written in MS Quick Basic 4.5,
-later it's been completely rewritten in Borland Pascal. It has a
-complete graphical user interface, with explicative drawings and
-animations (it was meant to run on Intel 386 systems, with standard
-VGA cards, under DOS). The database system for searching the catalog
-is based on functions I wrote solely for this program. Latest versions
-include an internationalization system, and I supervised (with the
-help of tellure Rôta's specialists) translation in English, French,
-German and Spanish.
-

-
-In 1995 I developer for PFB_ (Modena, Italy) a program for a test
-bench for overspeed governors. They make and sell mechanical lift
-components; the “overspeed governor” is a pulley, in which runs a
-cable linked to the lift proper: if the cable (i.e. the lift) exceeds
-a fixed speed, the pulley must block, in so doing pulling the cable
-and activating the emergency braking system. The program, using a
-dedicated interface I developed to a speed sensor (an optical encoder
-hooked to the parallel port), is able to read with high precision the
-intervention speed of the governor (that is, the highest speed reached
-before blocking); it allows then to archive tests and print
-certificates of conformity. The system runs on PCs, in text mode under
-DOS, and it's written in Borland Pascal. The database system is, also
-in this case, written ad-hoc.

-
-From 1996 I took part in the construction of a Ethernet local area
-network among heterogeneous machines (Macintosh and PC with Windows,
-DOS, Linux). Between 1997 and 2001 I've been "unofficially"
-responsible of the computer room in the Collegio Carducci of the
-Scuola Normale (where I lived): when I left it consisted of 8 PC,
-running MS Windows NT 4 and Linux (we used the RedHat distribution),
-and two iMac. There were also two laser printers, accessible from
-every machine on the network; the whole room was protected from
-external attacks with a NAT (Network Address Translator) made with a
-PC running Linux. The merit for the good results is not only mine:
-I've been helped by four colleagues, without whose collaboration it
-would not have been possible to realize everything we did. I organized
-a course of introductory lessons on the use of computers for users of
-the room; the lessons have been held by my colleagues.
-
-In 1997 I translated from English some articles about programming for
-IBM OS/2 Presentation Manager for the on-line magazine `Just Warp!`_.
-
-.. _`Just Warp!`: http://www.mclink.it/mclink/teamos2it/justwarp/index.htm
-
-Between July and August, 2000 I've been invited to `University of
-Wollongong`_ in Australia to work with prof. Ah Chung Tsoi and his
-group on neural networks for structured domains.
-
-.. _`University of Wollongong`: http://www.uow.edu.au/
-
-In 2000 I held some lessons on Perl programming for some of my fellow
-students, showing the basics of the language (and some obscure
-characteristic because of “evil” questions)
-
-I've also held a short lesson on the workings, usage and problems of
-Internet as part of a course for junior high school teachers,
-organized by my junior high school math teacher.
-
-I wrote the Italian translation of SourceForge_, and I helped the
-Italian translators of `KDE 2`_.
-
-.. _SourceForge: http://www.sourceforge.net/
-.. _`KDE 2`: http://www.kde.org/
-
-I've been on the organization team of the `Italian Perl Workshop`_ for
-all its editions (4 of them so far), handling the web-site, the
-selection of submitted talks, and the scheduling.
-
-.. _`Italian Perl Workshop`: http://www.perl.it/workshop/
-
-I've written a couple of articles for http://www.perl.it/\ , and I
-have a `CPAN account`_. Some of my code can be found on `my CGit
-pages`_.

-Abilities
-=========
-
-I know several programming languages:
-
-============= =====================
-Language      Knowledge level
-============= =====================
-Perl          Very good
-Python        Good
-C++           Very good
-C             Very good
-Java          Good
-Pascal        Good
-============= =====================
-
-I prefer imperative and object-oriented languages; I have some
-(design) difficulty with functional languages (Scheme, ML, Haskell).
-
-I have a strong interest (and strong opinions) on user interfaces. The
-best ones (in my opinion), text mode: WordStar 4.0, Pine; file/folder
-management: IBM Work Place Shell for OS/2; for PDAs: Apple
-Newton. Because of this I have designed many user interfaces (many more
-than I actually implemented).
-
-I don't think I'm very good at teaching, but the ones who attended my
-lessons considered themselves satisfied.
-
-As a manager/responsible I had some successes, coordinating a team of
-five people in the administration of a computer network, keeping at
-first place security and at second place reliability for users (which
-includes not changing users' habits in the name of innovation). At
-`Ask.com`_ I've co-ordinated a small team of people, and kept our
-developments in sync with other teams on the other side of the
-Atlantic.
-
-I am sysadmin for my Linux machines, all running `Gentoo Linux`_,
-including the dedicated host that runs the ``thenautilus.net`` domain.
-
-.. _`Gentoo Linux`: http://www.gentoo.org/
-
-I speak, read and write fluently in Italian and English; I can read
-French and with some difficulties Spanish. I've attended a first-level
-course of Japanese, and I passed the final exam.
