Advances in Information Technologies for Electromagnetics offers a broad panorama on recently achieved and potentially obtainable advances in electromagnetics with innovative IT technologies.

Simple tutorial chapters introduce the reader to cutting edge technologies, such as parallel and distributed computing, object-oriented technologies, grid computing, semantic grids, agent based computing and service-oriented architectures.

On such bases, a variety of EM applications is proposed: 1) parallel FDTD codes (both for antenna analysis and for metamaterial applications), 2) grid computing for computational EM (CEM) (with applications to antenna arrays, wireless and remote-sensing systems) 3) mobile agents for parametric CEM modeling 4) complex/hybrid EM software environments (with applications to planar circuits, quasi-optical systems,…) 5) semantic grids for CAE of antennas arrays.

This way the reader, after learning from very schematic tutorials the most relevant features of IT tools, has an immediate feeling of their impact on daily EM research.

Luciano Tarricone - Biography

Luciano Tarricone is an Associate Professor of Electromagnetic Fields at the University of Lecce, Italy. He received his laurea degree (with honors) from the University of Rome "La Sapienza", Italy, and his PhD from the same university, both in Electronic Engineering. In 1990 he was a researcher at the Italian National Institute of Health, and between 1990 and 1994 at the IBM European Center for Scientific and Engineering Computing. Between 1994 and 2001 he was at the University of Perugia, Italy. Since 2001 he has joined the University of Lecce.

His main research areas are: supercomputing for Electromagnetics, environmental electromagnetic compatibility, CAD of microwave circuits and antennas. He authored around 160 papers in international conferences and journals, and edited 3 volumes in the area of high performance computing for electromagnetics.
