I am a computer science engineer and I took my
laurea
degree in January 2007. After
working in the Distributed Systems research group at DIEEI of Catania
University, I have started this year a PhD in Catania, working at Dept.
of Physics and Astronomy and at INAF. My research activity has been
mainly focused on metaheuristics and scheduling algorithm in Grid
Computing. I am currently involved in a project, founded by the Italian
Ministry of Research that aims to develop a detection system for
containers control, making use of the muon tomography. It uses the
secondary particles of cosmic rays, affecting every place on Earth with
a constant flux, revealing the deflection of these particles when
crossing high atomic number materials. I will deal specifically with
issues of reconstruction and visualization of the tracks and with the
visualization of 3D tomographic images |
