Gabriele Gianini holds a M.Sc. and a Ph.D. in Physics from the University of Pavia, Italy. He is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Information Technology, University of Milan, Campus of Crema, where he teaches Probability and Statistics, and is a Lecturer of Computer Networks at the Computer Science Faculty of the University of Bolzano-Bozen. His research interests focus on quantitative methods for Software Engineering and include the application of inferential statistics and of data mining to the study of process data. Between 1990 and 2000 he has been working within the High Energy Physics community at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory in Chicago and at the CERN in Geneva and in 1998 has been visiting researcher at the CBPF in Brazil. He has co-authored approximately one hundred scientific papers and a few informatics books. Currently he is conducting research activities within the research project MAPS (Agile Methodologies for Software Production), and in the research project KIWI, both funded by the Italian Ministry of University and Research, investigating the subject of automatic information extraction from process logs and of semantic aware knowledge discovery from process data.
