Prof. Paolo Terenziani
University of Eastern Piedmont/Integrated Laboratory of AI and Medical Informatics DAIRI + DISIT, Italy
Paolo Terenziani was born in Turin (Italy) on July 4th, 1963. Since October 2000, he is Full Professor in the Department of Science and Technological Innovation of the University of Eastern Piedmont, Alessandria, Italy. The research activity of Paolo Terenziani has begun in 1987 and it concerns mainly the fields of Artificial Intelligence (knowledge representation, temporal reasoning, conformance analysis, process mining), Temporal Databases (query and data semantics, temporal indeterminacy, periodic data) and of Medical Informatics (clinical guidelines, decision support systems). Regarding these topics Paolo Terenziani has published more than 170 papers in peer-reviewed international journals, books, conference proceedings and workshops (in particular, he has achieved 15 publications on the IEEE Transactions of Knowledge and Data Engineering). As early as in 1998, for his research activity, he won the “Artificial Intelligence Prize�from Italian Association for Artificial Intelligence. He has won “distinguished\best�paper awards in several international conferences, including AMIA 2012, Chicago, USA, November 2012 (more than 1000 submissions). He is currently the responsible of the Integrated Laboratory of Artificial Intelligence and Medical Informatics of the Alessandria Hospital and the University of Eastern Piedmont, Alessandria, Italy.

Senior lecturer Salmah Binti Karman
University of Malaya, Malaysia Salmah Binti Karman (Member, IEEE) received the bachelor’s degree in electrical and electronic engineering from Oita University, Oita, Japan, in 2003, the master’s in engineering science (M.Eng.Sc.) degree from the Universiti Malaya, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, in 2011, and the Ph.D. degree from Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (National University of Malaysia), Bangi, Malaysia, in 2016. She is currently working as a Senior Lecturer with the Department of Biomedical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Universiti Malaya. Her research interest mostly focuses on biosensors and sensing systems. Currently she is actively involved in surface plasmon resonance-based biosensors for virus and bacteria protein detection. The outcome of these studies could be potential in environment safety management especially for infection disease control. She was also involved in molecular imprinted polymer (MIP) based biosensors for DNA detection, potentially applied for halal management systems. Salmah has a significant number of publications in high impact indexed journals and has experience in conducting the high value of project grants. Beside supervising the PhD and master students, she is also actively involved in teaching and learning in the department as part of the profession requirement.
