Gian Paolo Ghilardi’s Summary
I'm a Software Engineer with very broad interests ranging from software development to system administration. I'm always open to learn new things, especially challenging ones.
Programming languages:
C, C++, C#, Java (incl. Swing and OpenGL - via JOGL - ), VB6, Fortran 77, PHP, ASP, Javascript (incl. Ajax), Bash script, HTML/XML/CSS, a bit of Perl and Lua, ...
RDBMS:
MySQL, MS SQL Server
Other:
LaTeX, LyX, DocBook
OS, as admin and developer:
Linux (also embedded), MacOSX, Windows
Some of my favorite technical topics:
- ad-hoc tool development
- bioinformatics
- documentation production/management
- HPC (e.g. cluster technologies)
- object-oriented programming (OOP)
- parallel programming (e.g. Pthreads, MPI)
- software engineering (e.g. GoF design patterns)
- release/build engineering
- template metaprogramming (compile-time tricks)
- UNIX programming
I like reading technical books and reviewing them on my blog.

Gian Paolo Ghilardi’s Honors:
As part of the MS thesis work we developed some computational methods to identify potential hydrogen bonds and water bridges using statistical geometrical criteria.
These methods and their implementation (primarily the HBWB command-line tool) were then applied by my professor and his colleagues to some particular biomolecules and produced interesting experimental data.
In particular the tools were also used for studying an olygomer of the "smart"-polymer pNIPAAm and some of the results appeared in:
F. Gangemi, G. Longhi, S. Abbate, F. Lebon, R. Cordone, G.P. Ghilardi and S.L. Fornili "Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Aqueous Solutions of 26-Unit Segments of p(NIPAAm) and of p(NIPAAm) 'Doped' with Amino Acid Based Comonomers" J. Phys. Chem. B 2008, 112, 11896–11906
