Abstract
On Friday, May 29th, 2026, we will have a new talk for the series #NECSTFridayTalk.During this talk, we will have, as speaker, Susanna Bardini, PHD Student in Information Technology at Dipartimento di Elettronica, Informazione e Bioingegneria.
In an era of rapid technological advancement, the integration of wearable technologies and ambient sensors within smart buildings offers unprecedented opportunities to optimize well-being, performance, and recovery. This research aims to develop a scalable, privacy-preserving framework that combines data from wearables and environmental sensors, using Federated Learning (FL) for distributed analysis. The focus is on understanding how ambient factors impact on general wellbeing, daily routines, and working performances. A key component of the project is the creation of a digital twin for university students, which monitors their sleep, cognitive function, stress, and recovery, providing personalized insights to enhance academic performance and well-being. Additionally, the system explores the use of VR frameworks to assess the impact of these technologies on student well-being, both in terms of academic outcomes and personal development.
The NECSTLab is a DEIB laboratory, with different research lines on advanced topics in computing systems: from architectural characteristics, to hardware-software codesign methodologies, to security and dependability issues of complex system architectures.
