Graduated:
2011, Alma Mater Studiorum University of Bologna, M.Sc.

Master Thesis:
Giuseppe Carella, QoS-aware brokering support for IMS Infrastructures in cloud, 2011.

Giuseppe Carella received his M.Sc. in Engineering of Computer Science from the Alma Mater Studiorum University of Bologna in 2011. During his studies he focalised on next generation network infrastructure, especially in IMS services, like presence and messaging. He realised his Master thesis, “QoS-aware brokering support for IMS Infrastructures in cloud”, working at Fraunhofer FOKUS focusing on IMS and cloud computing, as one of the first work realised in the context of Network Function Virtualization (NFV). In 2012 he joined the Next Generation Networks (AV) team at the Technical University Berlin, where he started working on Future Internet projects like OpenLab and BonFIRE. He is mainly interested in new network architectures, like the IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) and the Evolved Packet Core (EPC), and he has a strong background in cloud computing technologies. He is currently involved as Software Engineer in the development of the OpenSDNCore platform, and involved in different European projects. 

Since the beginning he has been involved in many EU Projects part of the FP7: OpenLab, BonFIRE (EU BonFIRE project), Mobile Cloud Networking (https://mobile-cloud-networking.eu/) and NUBOMEDIA (https://www.nubomedia.eu/).

In the Mobile Cloud Networking project he is currently leading the activities related to the virtualisation and cloudification of the IMS platform, while in NUBOMEDIA he is bringing his expertise for realising an elastic cloud platform for Multimedia content. 

The BonFIRE Project supports experimentation and testing of innovative scenarios from the Internet of Services research community, specifically focused on the convergence of services and networks. In this project he is providing his expertise for enabling elasticity as a service.  

He was previously involved in OpenLab (EU OpenLab project [4]). In this project he was designing and developing the Slice Federation Architecture (SFA) extension for the FITeagle framework. FITeagle (www.fiteagle.org) is a framework for the interoperability of different testbeds. Furthermore SFA will increase the number of federated testbeds, allowing teagle experimenters to interoperate with an high number of heterogeneous resources. 

In parallel he coordinates the development of the OpenSDNCore platform, a software toolkit for realising research related to Network Function Virtualization and Software Defined Networks.
