Eckehard Steinbach
Eckehard Steinbach is a full professor for Media Technology at the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering of the Technical University of Munich (TUM) in Germany. His current research interests are in the area of visual-haptic information processing and communication and indoor localization. Dr. Steinbach studied Electrical Engineering at the University of Karlsruhe (Germany), the University of Essex (Great Britain), and ESIEE in Paris. From 1994-2000 he was a member of the research staff of the Image Communication Group at the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg (Germany), where he received the Engineering Doctorate in 1999. From February 2000 to December 2001 he was a Postdoctoral Fellow with the Information Systems Laboratory of Stanford University. In February 2002 he joined the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering of TUM. Dr. Steinbach and his team have received several best paper, best student paper or best poster awards for their work. Dr. Steinbach is the recipient of the 2011 “Research Award” of the Alcatel-Lucent Foundation. In 2005 Dr. Steinbach has been appointed as a Guest Professor at the Sino-German School for Postgraduate Studies (CDHK) at Tongji University in Shanghai. He was elected Fellow of the IEEE in 2015 for his contributions to visual and haptic communications.
Emilio Calvanese Strinati
Emilio C. Strinati obtained his Engineering Masters degree in 2001 from the University of Rome ‘La Sapienza’ and his Ph.D in Engineering Science in 2005 on Radio link control for improving the QoS of wireless packet transmission. He then started working at Motorola Labs in Paris in 2002. Then in 2006 he joint CEA/LETI as a research engineer. From 2007, he becomes a PhD supervisor. Since 2011 he is the Smart Devices & Telecommunications European collaborative strategic programs Director. E. Calvanese Strinati has published around 70 papers in international conferences and books chapters, and is the main inventor or co-inventor of more than 50 patents. He has organized more than 30 international workshops and special sessions on green communications and heterogeneous networks hosted in international conferences as IEEE GLOBECOM, IEEE PIMRC, IEEE WCNC, IFIP, and European Wireless. Dr. Calvanese Strinati has been the co-chair of the wireless working group in GreenTouch from April 2010 to January 2012. Since 2012 he is the strategy director of the Smart Devices & Telecommunications Strategy Program Director and in 2013 he has been elected as one of the 5G PPP steering board members.
