Emeritus Professor of Politecnico di Milano.
Fabio A. Schreiber was full professor of Databases and of Pervasive Data Management at the Department of Electronic and Information Engineering of the Politecnico di Milano; he also teached the Embedded Databases course in the Alari master in Embedded Systems at USI in Lugano (CH). Formerly he has been full professor of Informatics at the Mathematics Department of the University of Parma.
Born in Lugano (CH) in 1945, he received the Dr. Ing. degree in Electronic Engineering from Politecnico di Milano in 1969.
Research activity: His current research topics include: distributed information systems design, Database Systems for context-aware applications, Very Small and Mobile Database design methodologies and applications. On these and other topics he authored a hundred papers published in international journals and conferences. He organized the "3rd International Seminar on Distributed Data Sharing Systems" (Parma, 1984), is memeber of the editorial boards of Data and Knowledge Engineering, and, from 1975 to 1993, he has been Editor-in Chief of Rivista di Informatica - the journal of the Italian Association for Informatics (AICA). He participated to several research projects, with managerial responsibilities, among them: CNR-PFI1 DATANET on the architecture and design of distributed Data Bases (1979-1984); CNR-PFI2 LOGIDATA+ on merging logic programming and Data Base systems (1989-1994); ESPRIT EQUATOR on temporal Data Bases; ESPRIT ITHACA on tools for advanced application development; FIRB-MAIS, on Multichannel Adaptive Information Systems. He also participates to several projects on Information Systems and Telematics for the Public Administration and Local Authorities. He has been advisor to the Prefetto di Milano for the Automation of Information Systems in Public Administrations. For his activity on Information Systems for the Public Administrations he was bestowed the title of "Commendatore" of the Order "Al Merito della Repubblica Italiana". He is member of AICA, ACM, and Life Senior member of IEEE.
