Flavio G. Canavero is a Professor of electrical engineering at Politecnico di Torino (Technical University) in Turin, Italy. He received the Laurea degree in electronic engineering from the Politecnico di Torino, Torino, Italy, in 1977, and the Ph.D. degree from the Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, Ga, USA, in 1986. From 1977 to 1987, he was a Researcher with the Electronics Department of Politecnico di Torino. In 1987, he became an Associate Professor of microwave circuit design, and in 1990, he held a position of a Professor of electrical engineering, with the Department of Electrical Systems and Automation of the University of Pisa, Italy. In 1991, he was back at the Politecnico di Torino as a Professor of circuit theory and electromagnetic compatibility. He is the Leader of the EMC research group at Politecnico di Torino and is a frequent invited speaker on the topic of signal integrity and electromagnetic compatibility. He made pioneering contributions in the transient analysis of low-loss lines with mixed (frequency- and time-domain) methods and in black-box models of digital integrated circuits. Moreover, he received several best paper awards and certificates of recognition for his numerous services for IEEE Societies. His research interests concern modeling for signal integrity and electromagnetic compatibility. In particular, he works on interconnect modeling, circuit equivalents via model order reduction, behavioral modeling of digital devices, field coupling to multiwire lines, and statistical methods in EMC.
