Welcome :)

I’m Stefano Mariani, post-doc researcher and adjunct professor in the Distributed and Pervasive Intelligence Group at the Department of Sciences and Methods for Engineering of the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, Italy. On my spare time (lol) I enjoy music, basketball, and being a father of three—although as females they often prefer fairies and makeup to dinosaurs and robots…oh well.

Now, back to business.
