Personale docente

Alessandro Dal Palu' received his Computer Science degree cum laude in 2002 from the University of Verona. He received his PhD in Computer Science in 2006 from the University of Udine. From 2005 to 2014 he served as Researcher at the University of Parma, Mathematics Department. From 2014 he is an Associate Professor at Parma.

His research interests range from computational logic, to parallelism and bioinformatics: programming methodologies to solve complex problems (CLP, ASP, ILP, SAT); protein structure conformational analysis, RNA alignment, tertiary structure reconstructure from low resolution images; computational complextity and data structures optimization; multi-dimensional analysis of medical images; parallelism and GPU computing.

He received the Italian 2007 GULP (Gruppo Ricercatori e Utenti Logic Programming) award for best Ph.D. thesis on computational logics.
In 2010 he received the ICLP best paper award with the co-authored paper CLP-based protein fragment assembly.

He is part of the program committee of international conferences and organized several international workshops on constraint programming and bioinformatics (from 2005 to 2018). He is general chair of ICLP 2018 (International Conference on Logic Programming). He participated in various funded national research projects. In 2011 he was the PI of Italian Indam-gncs project on GPU applications and in 2016 he was the PI of Italian Indam-gncs project on Logic Programming application to genome in cancer.
