Carmelo Zaccone

Being a network & telecom engineer who loves new technologies, I did start working, within Alcatel-Lucent @ the research department in the IP team (Network Strategy Group). As a research engineer, I was in charge to investigate, within the IETF, new IP emerging technologies and participate to the creation of some. Being very close to new IP technologies, I often had the opportunity to submit and present white papers within highly valuable conferences. Moreover part of my research work became international (US,EU,PACE) patents. Having a solid software architect & development background combined with a good knowledge of IP and surrounding protocols such as VoIP, I left the group to create the SIP start-up 'Indigo Software' with a few friend. Nowadays, I'm back into my favourite business activity by working as Technology Watcher for the Belgian Walloon Government. You may also follow me on twitter.com/carmelo & ipgeek.jaiku.com
