| Lucchesi, Walter ORGANIZER: Elmasry, George | |
| This session focuses on some of the challenges facing modeling and simulating of large-scale networks. Relevant papers study issues like abstract network simulation, the trade-offs between detail and simulation objectives, and scope of model validation and verification. The session also cover approaching large-scale networking through computational simplification, distributed algorithms, and harnessing any information the network may make available. Papers discussing Software-In-The-Loop, hardware in the loop, Network in the loop, operational planning tools, model validation and verification techniques, and algorithm development. | |
| George F. Elmasry received his B.Sc. degree in Electrical Engineering from Alexandria University, Egypt, and his M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering from New Jersey Institute of Technology. He is currently the president of the networking and communications division at DSCI. Before joining DSCI, he worked for General Dynamics C4S in the WIN-T. Prior to General Dynamics, he worked for Lucent Technologies in the Wireless Networks Wideband CDMA group. His research interests include the areas of wireless networking, ARQ, joint source and channel coding, and multidimensional interleaving. He holds over 35 publications and patents in these fields. He is also actively involved with technology conference organization and paper reviews. | |
| Walter Lucchesi is the Chief of the Architecture and Modeling & Simulation Branch in the CERDEC at Ft Monmouth, New Jersey. He has over 25 years of experience in System Engineering, including Information Engineering & Standardization, Interoperability, Metrology & Prognostics, Software & System Architecture Engineering, and other related advanced engineering disciplines. In addition, he is also an adjunct professor at Steven’s Institute of Technology and teaches advanced engineering concepts. Mr. Lucchesi received his BSEE from Pratt Institute, MCS from Farleigh Dickerson University and advanced engineering post graduate certificates in Wireless Communications from Steven’s Institute of Technology, Software Intensive Application in C3I Systems from George Mason University, and Information Networks from Steven’s Institute of Technology. Mr. Lucchesi recently received an Engineer Degree from Steven’s Institute of Technology with an emphasis on engineering large scale C4ISR Enterprise Architectures and their assessment and is currently a PhD candidate at NSU. |
