Associate Professors

Associate Professor of Electronics at the University of Calabria (UNICAL) since 1/11/2010. She has been positively evaluated for the position of Full Professor on 04/04/2017. From 1/10/2005 to 1/10/2009 she was Adjunct Professor at the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Rochester, NY, USA. The main theoretical-experimental research activities concern: the design of embedded on-chip systems; the design of circuits for binary calculation in QCA; the realization of VLSI circuits for the processing of stereoscopic images; the design of algorithms aimed at the realization of specifi c hardware for the processing of digital images. Some scientifi c papers have been awarded with the recognition of “best paper” in 2006, 2009, 2010 and 2016. Head of Research in several research projects funded by the MIUR and MISE Ministries, in collaboration with companies operating in the electronics industry, such as Beghelli and Technosystem Development.
