摘要 :Molecular Communication (MC) is a recently classified bio-inspired paradigm in telecommunications engineering, inspired by the cells’ natural ability to interact through the exchange of molecules. MC naturally underlies a vast range of biological processes, ranging from cell’s metabolism and microorganism interactions, to major organ systems within our body, such as the endocrine and the nervous systems. The characterization of these processes through telecommunications theory offers novel tools to model, design, and engineer a new generation of applications. The main focus of this talk is on the application of a systems theoretic approach to the study of MC and its application to model systems such as cell-to-cell interactions and intra-body networks.
个人简介:Massimiliano Pierobon received the Ph.D. degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, GA, in 2013, and his M.S. degree in Telecommunication Engineering from the Politecnico di Milano, Milan, Italy, in 2005. Currently, he is an Assistant Professor with the Department of Computer Science & Engineering at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. He received the BWN Lab Researcher of the Year Award at the Georgia Institute of Technology for his outstanding research achievements in 2011. He was also named IEEE Communications Letters 2013 Exemplary Reviewer in appreciation for his service as referee. He is an editor of the IEEE Transactions in Communications. He is a member of IEEE, ACM, and ACS. His current research interests are in molecular communication theory for nanonetworks, communication engineering applied to intelligent drug delivery systems and telecommunication engineering applied to cell-to-cell communications.
