Ivan Cibrario Bertolotti received the Laurea degree (summa cum laude) in computer science from the University of Torino, Turin, Italy, in 1996. Since then, he has been a researcher with the National Research Council of Italy (CNR). Currently, he is with the CNR’s Institute of Electronics, Computer, and Telecommunication Engineering (IEIIT), Turin, Italy. His research interests include real-time operating system design and implementation, industrial communication systems and protocols, and formal methods for vulnerability and dependability analysis of distributed systems. His contributions in this area comprise both theoretical work and practical applications, carried out in cooperation with leading Italian and international companies. He taught several courses on real-time operating systems at Politecnico di Torino, Turin, Italy, from 2003 until 2013, as well as a PhD degree course at the University of Padova in 2009. He regularly serves as a technical referee for the main international conferences and journals on industrial informatics, factory automation, and communication. He has been an IEEE member since 2006.

Tingting Hu holds a master’s degree in computer engineering and a PhD degree in computer and control engineering, both from Politecnico di Torino, Turin, Italy. Since 2010, she has been a research fellow with the National Research Council of Italy (CNR). Currently, she is with the CNR’s Institute of Electronics, Computer, and Telecommunication Engineering (IEIIT), Turin, Italy. Her main research interests are the design and implementation of real-time operating systems and communication protocols, focusing on deterministic and flexible execution and communication for distributed real-time embedded systems. A significant amount of her research activities are carried out in strict collaboration with industry. She is actively involved in several regional and national industrial research projects in the context of the Italian "Factory of the Future" framework program. Moreover, in 2014 she taught a postgraduate-level course about real-time operating systems and open-source software for embedded applications aimed at company technical managers. She has been an IEEE member since 2011 and serves as technical referee for several primary conferences in her research area.
