Michele Zorzi

Michele Zorzi was born in Venice, Italy, in 1966. He received the Laurea degree and the Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering from the University of Padova, Italy, in 1990 and 1994, respectively. During the academic year 1992–1993, he was on leave at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD), attending graduate courses and doing research on multiple access in mobile radio networks. In 1993, he joined the faculty of the Dipartimento di Elettronica e Informazione, Politecnico di Milano, Italy. After spending three years with the Center for Wireless Communications at UCSD, in 1998 he joined the School of Engineering, University of Ferrara, Italy, and in 2003 joined the Department of Information Engineering, University of Padova, Italy, where he is currently a Professor. His present research interests include performance evaluation in mobile communications systems, random access in mobile radio networks, ad hoc and sensor networks, and energy constrained communications protocols. Dr. Zorzi is the Editor-in-Chief of the IEEE Wireless Communications Magazine, and currently serves on the Editorial Boards of the IEEE Transactions on Communications, the IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications, the IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing, the Wiley Journal of Wireless Communications and Mobile Computing, and the ACM/URSI/Kluwer Journal of Wireless Networks. He was also Guest Editor for special issues in the IEEE Personal Communications Magazine (Energy Management in Personal Communications Systems) and the IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications (Multimedia Network Radios).
