of Italy and the chair of the Department of Genova of the CNR National Institute
of Applied Mathematics and Information Technology (CNR IMATI-GE).
She has been leading and coordinating research at international level
in advanced and interdisciplinary fields (such as computational mathematics,
computer graphics, multidimensional media and knowledge technologies), strongly
interacting with outstanding industrial and social application fields: from industrial
design to geographic information systems, from manufacturing to semantic web.
She is presently taking part in over ten European and Italian research projects
and is the coordinator of the FP6 Network of Excellence AIM@SHAPE, aiming at representing
and processing knowledge related to multi-dimensional media. From March 2008,
she is the coordinator of the FP7 Coordination Action FOCUS K3D,
whose main aim is to promote the adoption of best practices for 3D content knowledge modelling and processing.
She is the author of over 200 scientific refereed papers and books,
chair or co-chair of international conferences and workshops, and currently
editor in chief of the International Journal Shape Modelling. On the occasion of
the 80th CNR anniversary, Bianca Falcidieno was included in the 12 top-level researcher women in the CNR history.
