Alessandro Gianola

I am a Postdoctoral Researcher in Computer Science at the KRDB Research Centre for Knowledge and Data (Free University of Bozen-Bolzano, Italy). From February to August 2020, I was also a Research Affiliate (Visiting Scholar) at the Department of Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) of the University of California, San Diego (UCSD).
I hold a PhD in Computer Science, earned cum laude at the Free University of Bozen-Bolzano, and a Master’s Degree in Mathematics, earned cum laude at Università degli Studi di Milano. My scientific interests involve computational logic and Business Process Management (BPM): specifically, my research activity focuses on theoretical and methodological aspects of mathematical logic and formal methods for verification of complex (business) processes with data.
Main Research Areas
Formal Verification, Automated Reasoning, BPM, Computational Logic, Model Checking, Artificial Intelligence, Mathematical Logic, Theoretical Computer Science
