Hi there! I’m Giovanni Squillero.
I am currently serving as a full professor of Computer Science in the Department of Control and Computer Engineering at Politecnico di Torino — this academic year, I teach 5 courses: 1 PhD, 1 MS, and 3 BS.
I have been interested in artificial intelligence and soft computing since the 1990s, especially in bio-inspired meta-heuristics and multi-agent systems. I am also into approximate optimization, that is, I design algorithms able to provide reasonable solutions using reasonable resources.
Most of my professional activities are with the CAD group. The industrial applications of my research range from electronic CAD, to bioinformatics, to the cultural sector.
