SENSES (SEnsors NetworkS and Embedded Systems Laboratory) is a laboratory of the Computer Science Department at Rome University La Sapienza. Director: Prof. Chiara Petrioli.
Current research activities include the design, implementation and evaluation of protocol stacks for wireless sensor and actor networks; the design of solutions enabling efficient communications in mobile sensor networks; the development of tools for reprogramming and managing large scale sensor networks; the design and real-life evaluation of protocol stacks for underwater sensor networks; the design and implementation of RFID systems; the design and evaluation of E-health and assisted living systems; the design of solutions exploiting advanced phy layer paradigms such as cognitive networking; the design of solutions for green, battery-less mobile networking (based on energy harvesting); the design and evaluation of security solutions for wireless sensor networks; the design of WSN based solutions for structural health monitoring and archeological site/historical buildings monitoring.
The lab is one of the core components of the new Center for Cyber Intelligence and Information Security and of Sapienza Innovazione ICT technology for security inter-department lab. Sapienza Innovazione is 'La Sapienza' technology incubator, funded by the italian ministry of industry.
Members: Prof. Chiara Petrioli (lab director); Dr. Gaia Maselli (assistant professor), Dr. Loreto Pescosolido, Dr. Roberto Petroccia, Dr. Donatella Ermini, Dr. Pietro Monsurrò (postdoc researchers), Alessandro Camillò, Dora Spenza, Alessandro Cammarano, Angelo Capossele, Ariona Shashaj, Daniele Spaccini, David Benedetti (PhD students). Previous members of the lab are Dr. Michele Mastrogiovanni (now with Engineering SpA), Dr. Michele Nati (postdoc researcher at University of Surrey, UK), Dr. Alessio Carosi (now with Broadcom, Cambridge, UK) Alessandro Modesti (now with the R&D department of IMG S.r.l.) and Dr. Claudio Vicari
What we can easily see is only a small percentage of what is possible Imagination is having the vision to see what is just below the surface; to picture that which is essential, but invisible to the eye. Then to be or not to be is not the question; but to envision the future and set sail for your horizon.

Imagination is having the vision to see what is just below the surface;
