Summary
Flavio Esposito is an associate professor of computer science at Saint Louis University with over a decade of experience spanning academia and industry, focused on algorithms and protocols for service-based architectures and Software-Defined Networking. He earned a PhD from Boston University and an MS in Telecommunications Engineering from the University of Florence, bringing international research experience from internships and visits at Bell Labs, BBN, EURECOM, and research centers in Finland. Before academia he helped design latency-sensitive network and cloud management systems at Exegy, blending rigorous research with production-minded engineering. His work bridges theoretical networking research and practical implementations, including MAC-layer development for UWB radios and systems-level scheduling for P2P and virtualized infrastructures. Based in St. Louis, he maintains active collaborations across universities and industry, often translating classical networking problems into solutions for modern service-oriented and SDN environments. Colleagues note his uncommon combination of deep protocol insight and hands-on systems development informed by diverse global research placements.
