Maurizio Zamboni

Maurizio Zamboni is a Full Professor at the Department of Electronics and Telecommunications (DET) at the Polytechnic University of Turin, where he also serves as Student Ombudsman. His academic career spans over three decades with continuous teaching and research contributions in electronics and computing fields.

Professor Zamboni's research interests focus on cutting-edge areas including CMOS integrated circuits, computer architecture, quantum computing, semiconductor devices, and VLSI design. His work particularly emphasizes emerging nanotechnologies for digital microelectronic architectures and the design of high-performance or low-consumption processing systems. He has developed expertise in circuit architectures for probabilistic computing, logic-in-memory computing, magnetic devices, and quantum architectures.

His recent publications (2021-2025) reveal a strong trend toward quantum computing applications, in-memory processing architectures, and novel approaches to overcoming the memory wall problem. These works span both theoretical algorithm development and practical hardware implementations, with significant focus on quantum annealing, FPGA-based quantum emulation, and memory-mapped processing architectures.

Professor Zamboni has been actively supervising PhD students working on quantum computing algorithms, hardware AI accelerators for automotive applications, and quantum-related optimization approaches. He leads research within the VLSILAB Group at DET, focusing on the intersection of nanoelectronics, quantum computing, and advanced computer architectures. His work bridges theoretical computer science with practical electronic design, creating novel solutions for next-generation computing challenges.
