Ivan Serina is associate professor in Information Processing Systems at the
Dept. of
Information Engineering of the University of Brescia, Italy. In 1995 he received his degree in Computer
Science at the University of Milan with full marks and honours. Since
1997 he has been a member of the Artificial Intelligence Research Group
at the University of Brescia, headed by Professor Alfonso Gerevini,
working on various topics such as Plan Generation and Adaptation
through Local and Systematic Search Techniques. In 2000 he
received his PhD degree in Computer Science Engineering at the
University of Brescia and in 2003 he has received a Marie Curie Fellowship in the
field of Planning and Scheduling at the Department of Computer and
Information Sciences of the University of Strathclyde (Glasgow). He
worked at the Faculty of Education of the Free University of Bozen-Bolzano from 2008 to
2012.
He participated in the 3rd International Planning Competition (2002) with LPG, a planner developed with Professor Alfonso
Gerevini that was awarded for "Distinguished performance of the
first order"; he participated
in the 4th International Planning Competition (2004) with LPG-td, a planner
developed with Professor Alfonso Gerevini and Ing. Alessandro Saetti
that was awarded for its performance in temporal and numeric
domains. He was Senior Member of the Program Committee of IJCAI-11 (International Joint
Conference on Artificial Intelligence) and Co-chair with Neil
Yorke-Smith (American University of Beirut, Lebanon and SRI
International, USA) of the ICAPS-2010
Exhibits and Demonstrations Session and with Marco Maratea of RCRA17. Currently,
he is Associate Editor of AI Communications and Member of the Program Committees
of AAAI 2021, ICAPS 2020 and co-chair of IPS2020 and SOCS2021. Ivan Serina is author or co-author of more
than 60 published reviewed papers in various fields
of Artificial Intelligence.
