Hi, I'm Roberto Viola 👋

Senior Researcher & Project Manager at Vicomtech | PhD in ICT

Architecting the intelligent network-application synergy between 6G Infrastructures and Next-Gen Multimedia Communications.

LinkedIn Google Scholar ORCID Vicomtech


🔬 About Me

I specialize in the convergence of Multimedia Communications, 6G Infrastructure, and Data Spaces. My R&D focus is on building advanced application-network synergies, allowing immersive multimedia systems and next-generation 6G architectures to operate seamlessly as an intelligent, unified system.

  • 💼 30+ R&D Projects managed across national and international consortia.
  • 📝 20+ Scientific Publications bridging research and industrial deployment.
  • 🌱 Upstream Contributor to open-source multimedia processing frameworks.

🚀 Core Research Areas & Expertise

  • 🎥 Multimedia Communications: Maximizing Quality of Experience (QoE) via advanced encoding and low-latency streaming protocols (WebRTC, DASH/CMAF, MoQ/QUIC).
  • 📡 6G & Edge Orchestration: Designing "Network-Application Synergy" using standardized Network APIs (3GPP NWDAF/NEF, GSMA CAMARA) for dynamic resource orchestration across RAN and Edge.
  • 🔐 Data Spaces: Developing secure, sovereign, and decentralized data-sharing frameworks to ensure interoperability and data ownership between consumers and producers across distributed 6G environments.
  • 🤖 Agentic AI & Trusted Access: Leveraging Distributed Ledger Technologies (DLT) to establish transparency and immutable trust, enabling autonomous agents with policy-governed access to sensitive data and network resources.
