Fabio Grandi
Fabio Grandi was born in Ferrara (Italy) on December 31, 1964. He received a Laurea degree cum Laude in Electronics Engineering in 1988, and a PhD in Electronics Engineering and Computer Science in 1994, from the University of Bologna (Italy). Starting in 1989, he worked at the IEIIT (formerly CIOC and then CSITE) Centre of the Italian National Research Council (CNR) in Bologna, in the fields of neural networks and temporal databases. For this work he was initially supported, in 1990 and 1991, by research fellowships from the CNR. In 1993 and 1994, he was an Adjunct Professor of Information Systems at the University of Ferrara and at the University of Bologna (Cesena branch). He had been serving from 1990 to 1998 as an assistant lecturer for several courses of Computer Science Foundations and Information Systems (Information Management and Information Retrieval) at the University of Bologna.In July 1994, he joined the Department of Electronics, Computer and Systems Science, (DEIS) of the University of Bologna as a Research Associate. His official teaching duties included a Relational DBMS module in A.Y. 1996/97 and an Information System course in A.Y. 1997/98 at the Reggio Emilia campus (Laurea course in Management Engineering). From 1995 to 1998 he was also lecturer and area tutor of Information Systems for the post-graduate degree in Business Administration by the ProFinGest Consortium (Bologna). Since October 2012 is with the Department of Computer Science and Engineering (DISI) of the University of Bologna.Since November 1998, he has been an Associate Professor of Information Systems at the University of Bologna. His teaching activities have included courses of Information Systems, Databases, Computer networks, Internet and Web Technologies and Business Intelligence (for the Laurea, Laurea Specialistica and Laurea Magistrale degrees in Management Engineering, Management Process Engineering and Computer Engineering) in the Faculty of Engineering (which became the School of Engineering and Architecture in 2012) of the University of Bologna. From A.Y. 1998/99 to 2002/03 he has been also doing examinations (of Databases and Information Systems) for the Diploma degrees in Computer Engineering and in Logistics and Production Engineering from the NetTuNo Consortium (distance learning). In A.Y.s 2001/02, 2003/04 and 2004/05 he was also lecturer of Information Systems for the Master degree in Logistics Management jointly organized by the University of Bologna and the Cofimp Consortium (Bologna). His research activities, formerly at the DEIS and then at the DISI department, are mainly in the context of temporal databases, where he is interested in data models, query languages, storage and access structures, schema evolution and versioning in the context of relational, object-oriented and XML databases. He has also worked on temporal and versioning aspects in the context of the World Wide Web and Semantic Web technologies, mainly for Cultural Heritage, eGovernment and eHealth applications. Other research interests of Fabio Grandi include neural networks and knowledge representation. He had also been working for the CSITE/IEIIT centre from 1999 to 2003 through a CNR research appointment. He has written several (national and international) journal and conference papers, some of which represent the completion of international cooperation works. He has been a member of the TSQL2 Language Design Committee, which designed a temporal extension of the SQL92 standard query language, took part to the initiative leading to the production of a consensual glossary of temporal database concepts, and is a participant to the TimeCenter initiative. He has been several times throughout the years reviewers for the main national and international journals (including ACM TODS, ACM TOIS, ACM TOIT, IEEE TKDE, D
