antonio.ierano@ierano.it 11/12/2019 Editorials, Editorials in English, Tech Update in English

I have been recently interviewed on 5G issues and this made me realize how confusing is the knowledge and understanding about 5G.

Fra le prime ad imporsi e più note non solo fra gli addetti ai lavori c’è sicuramente “web 2.0”. Si tratta di un fenomeno affascinante dal punto di vista ideale, che ha fatto cultura, che ha…

Services like gym, swimming pool, areas to play basketball (not for me of course)…everything looks great. Then the…
