Christian Castelli’s Education

Università degli Studi di Milano

104/110 , Digital Communication , 2003 — 2008

Thesis: "Integration of a client-side navigator in a system for distributed and localized resources".
I realized a proxy in Visual C++ for Windows mobile devices to let communicate TomTom Navigator (through his SDK) with a Java Personal Profile application for a P2P POI managment system.

Activities and Societies:

I attended Digital Communication course, which is similar to informatics but it has obviuosly some differences.
Here I learned Java, PHP, SQL (MySQL and PostgreSQL) and many markup languages as (X)HTML, HTML, XML and WML.
Programming is my passion and my profession now :-)
