  1. Toward Privacy-Aware Environmental Monitoring of CO2 and Air Pollutants in Southern Italy
    Campanile, L., Di Bonito, L. P., Marulli, F., Balzanella, A., & Verde, R. (2026). Toward Privacy-Aware Environmental Monitoring of CO2 and Air Pollutants in Southern Italy [Conference paper]. Lecture Notes in Computer Science, 15893 LNCS, 317–333. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-97645-2_21
    Abstract
    The increasing levels of CO2 and air pollutants represent a major challenge to environmental sustainability and public health, particularly in regions characterized by complex geographic and socio-economic dynamics. This work proposes a study focused on the Southern Italy regions, where environmental vulnerabilities are displayed, along with a limited availability of high-granularity data. The main aim of this work is to build and provide a comprehensive and detailed dataset tailored to the region’s unique needs, by leveraging datasets from EDGAR for greenhouse gases and air pollutants, integrated with demographic and territorial morphology data from ISTAT. The creation of composite indicators to monitor trends in emissions and pollution on a fine spatial scale is supported by the data set. These indicators enable initial insight into spatial disparities in pollutant concentrations, offering valuable data to inform targeted policy interventions. The work provided a foundation for next analytical studies, integrating different datasets and highlighting the potential for complex spatiotemporal analysis. The study provides a robust dataset and preliminary insights, enhancing the understanding of environmental dynamics in Southern Italy. Subsequent efforts will focus on extending this methodology to more extensive geographic contexts and incorporating real-time data for adaptive monitoring. The proposed framework also lays the groundwork for privacy-aware environmental monitoring solutions, enabling future integration with edge and IoT-based architectures while addressing privacy and data protection concerns. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2026.

  2. Performance evaluation of a fog WSN infrastructure for emergency management
    Campanile, L., Gribaudo, M., Iacono, M., & Mastroianni, M. (2020). Performance evaluation of a fog WSN infrastructure for emergency management [Article]. Simulation Modelling Practice and Theory, 104. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.simpat.2020.102120
    Abstract
    Advances in technology and the rise of new computing paradigms, such as Fog computing, may boost the definition of a new generation of advanced support services in critical applications. In this paper we explore the possibilities of a Wireless Sensor Network support (WSN) for a Fog computing system in an emergency management architecture that has been previously presented. Disposable intelligent wireless sensors, capable of processing tasks locally, are deployed and used to support and protect the intervention of a squad of firemen equipped with augmented reality and life monitoring devices to provide an environmental monitoring system and communication infrastructure,in the framework of a next-generation, cloud-supported emergency management system. Simulation is used to explore the design parameter space and dimension the workloads and the extension of the WSN, according to an adaptive behavior of the resulting Fog computing system that varies workloads to save the integrity of the WSN. © 2020 Elsevier B.V.
