		At Eclipse, beside being a steering member of the Edge Native WG, I am leading the fog05 and zenoh projects and I 
		am a committer on Cyclone DDS. Overall, my mission in the past few years has been that of helping create an 
		Eclipse technology stack for the Edge.

		<p>Distributed systems, programming languages and real-time systems have been my passion 
		since I was a young engineering student. I've always been driven by the quest for finding 
		(1) the right abstractions to provide to end-users with ergonomic, safe and as much as possible 
		composable  primitives, (2) the right architectures and algorithms that would allow for efficiency, 
		scalability determinism and in general dependability. These interests have inevitably lead me to 
		be involved deeply in the development of technologies for Edge and Fog computing, in which there is 
		the inevitable convergence of distributed, embedded and to a certain extent real-time computing.</p> 
		
		<p>As IoT and Edge Native represents a swiftly growing domain for Eclipse, my focus will be on driving 
		the current Eclipse infrastructure toward better supporting this new class of projects. Specifically, 
		my main areas of focus will be related to static code analysis, test coverage, performance and 
		scalability testing.</p>  
		
		<p>Why so? Because if we want to make the difference in the world of open source 
		and more importantly accelerate industrial adoption of Eclipse technologies, 
		we need to provide evidences of intrinsic quality as well as measures of performances. Many of us know
		how hard it is to make tests at scale, thus one of the goals I'd like to reach is to use some of the 
		Eclipse technologies already available for provisioning, to help establish a common distributed 
		benchmarking framework. I'll also try to work with the rest of Eclipse to see if we can 
		have agreements with infrastruture providers to grant some resource for free -- as some of them 
		currently do for builds.</p> 

		<p>In conclusion, my focus will be continuing to help create momentum around the IoT and Edge Native 
		ecosystem and provide an infrastructure that will allow these projects to make the difference.</p>  ]]>
