Short CV

• JANUARY 2008 - I started the Ph.D. Course in Computer Science at Department of Computer Science, University of Bari, under the supervision of Prof. Giovanni Semeraro. The topic of my thesis concerns the study of semantic indexing into the Semantic and Social Web context.
• OCTOBER 2007 - I received a Laurea Degree with full marks and honors in Computer Science from University of Bari. I discussed a thesis titled: ″SENSE – design and development of a Semantic Search Engine″.
