Dr. Sergey Gorinsky, a Research Associate Professor at IMDEA Networks Institute, has become the first European member of the international COMSNETS Association. Gorinsky has been invited to join its executive committee.

Researchers at IMDEA Networks Institute and other international centers have presented improvements in the energy management of cloud computing centers, such as new models of energy consumption on the servers or ways to reduce the wire length. The developments are part of the inter-university project CLOUDS.  

To meet our everyday needs in an increasingly multifaceted technological world is a challenge that pushes researchers to find innovative tools using a multidisciplinary approach. We inhabit a globalized planet, made up of complex systems, where domains such as communications, business, healthcare, energy or transportation converge, interact and integrate. In this context, a thriving technology trend applies the concept of animal swarms or swarming to the development of complex systems that bridge the gap amongst disciplines as dissimilar as biology, robotics or networking.

IMDEA Networks has announced that Dr. Paolo Casari will join the Institute in January 2015 in the role of Research Assistant Professor. He is a bright researcher with several years of experience, particularly focused on underwater communications and networking.
