Work & Interests

Marianna works on characterizing and understanding the behavior of wireless links. She is recently focusing on Wireless Home Networking. Her goal is to gain a rich characterization of the wireless home network which may be input to automatic management algorithms or elaborated for a comprehensive presentation to the user.
Part of her work iis carried out within the framework of the Eurepean Projects: “OPNEX - Optimization driven Multi-Hop Network Design and Experimentation” and “WIP - An All-Wireless Mobile Network Architecture”.

Short Bio

Marianna was born in Pinerolo, nearby Torino (Italy), in 1983. She studied Computer Science Engineering at Politecnico di Torino, obtaining her BSc in Sept 2005 and MSc in Feb 2008, graduating cum laude. As part of her Master studies she spent one year at Eurecom, in Sophia Antipolis (France), where she obtained (Sept 2007) a Master Recherche in Network and Distribuited System (“Sciences et technologies de l'information et de la communication, Réseaux et systèmes distribués”).

She prepared her Master Thesis “Implementation And Evaluation of a MAC-aware Link Cost Metric for Wireless Mesh Networks”, at the Thomson Paris Research Lab, with Henrik Lundgren, Theodoros Salonidis and Christophe Diot.

She's currently a PhD Student in the same group at Thomson Paris Research Lab, supervised by Christophe Diot and Serge Fdida (University Paris VI).
