I am a master's student in Computer Engineering at the University of Padova, nearing the end of my studies. After a semester of courses at ETH, I am working on my master's thesis at Huawei Zurich Research Center, developing high-performance optimization algorithms under the supervision of Denis Jelovina.

My passion is in the study of algorithms, parallel computing and everything that enables fast, efficient or otherwise high-performance computations.

I am currently looking around for a PhD opportunity in the fields of parallel computing, high performance computing, algorithms and related fields. Feel free to contact me if you happen to look for someone like me!

Publications

I have also published also some works, that you can check out online.

GAIO, Giovanni, et al. SEUPD2425-RACOON at LongEval: A Novel Approach To Information Retrieval With LLM-Based Query Expansion And Temporal Relevance Feedback Techniques. In: CEUR WORKSHOP PROCEEDINGS. CEUR-WS, 2025. S. 3454-3474.
As part of the course 'Search Engines' by prof. Nicola Ferro, me and some colleagues worked on an information retrieval system, that we were able to publish.
GAIO, Giovanni. Algoritmi di approssimazione per la massimizzazione di funzioni submodulari. 2024.
This is by bachelor's thesis. It is a survey about some results on the problem of maximizing submodular functions.
