Gianluca Aloi

Gianluca Aloi serves as an Associate Professor in Telecommunications (IINF-03/A) at the Department of Computer Engineering, Modeling, Electronics and Systems (DIMES) of the University of Calabria, Italy. He holds the position of scientific director for the Telecommunications and Information Theory for Advanced Networking Laboratory (TITAN Lab.). Dr. Aloi earned his PhD in Systems Engineering and Computer Science from the University of Calabria in 2003 and became a University Researcher in Telecommunications (ING-INF/03) in 2004 before advancing to his current academic rank.

His research expertise spans wireless networks, cellular networks, sensor networks, Internet of Things systems and their interoperability, management of resources and services in the Cloud/Edge and IoT (CEI) Continuum, and management and orchestration of network resources using Artificial Intelligence. His work particularly focuses on UAV-assisted IoT systems for industrial applications, geological hazard monitoring, and maritime environments.

Analysis of Dr. Aloi's recent publications (2023-2025) reveals a strong emphasis on applying reinforcement learning and deep learning techniques to solve complex networking challenges. His research shows a clear trajectory toward developing intelligent network architectures that optimize data collection, improve system resilience, and enhance resource management across the edge-to-cloud continuum. Key application areas include smart factories, disaster monitoring, and urban vehicular systems.

Dr. Aloi teaches courses including Fundamentals of Telecommunications Networks and Telecommunications Networks for both Electronic Engineering and Computer Engineering programs. He maintains regular reception hours every Tuesday from 9am to 11am or by appointment via email.

As scientific director of TITAN Lab, Dr. Aloi leads research initiatives focused on advanced networking technologies, with particular emphasis on developing solutions for next-generation communication systems that integrate artificial intelligence with traditional networking paradigms to address real-world challenges in telecommunications and IoT applications.
