Read My Book

This open access book gathers contributions to the EU-funded Horizon 2020 project Shared automation Operating models for Worldwide adoption (SHOW). It reports on technologies and business models focusing on supporting the deployment of shared, connected, and electrified automation in urban transport. Chapters discuss practical issues concerning mobility data management, strategies to improve user acceptance and engagement, and reports on assessment and simulation techniques to test shared automated shuttles in various contexts.

I have authored over 50 academic publications, including peer-reviewed journal articles, conference papers, and book chapters. My work focuses on sustainable urban mobility, autonomous vehicles, and innovation in transportation systems. With a strong citation record, my research reflects both academic rigor and real-world relevance—something I carry into every project I work on. You can find a selection of my publications below and the entire list on my Google Scholar profile.
