Vito Daniele was born in Catanzaro, Italy, on March 1942. He received the Laurea degree in electronic engineering from the Politecnico di Torino, Turin, Italy, in 1966. In 1980, he was a Full Professor in Electrical Engineering at the University of Catania, Italy. From 1981 to 2012, he was a Professor of Electrical Engineering at the Politecnico di Torino, Italy, where he has been an Emeritus Professor since 2015. He has served as a Consultant to various industries in Italy. He has authored or coauthored more than 150 papers in refereed journals and conference proceedings and several textbook chapters. In particular, his studies on the Wiener–Hopf technique have produced the books “The Wiener–Hopf Method in Electromagnetics” and “Scattering and Diffraction by Wedges-The Wiener–Hopf Solution” (two volumes). His current research interests include analytical and approximate techniques for the evaluation of electromagnetic fields at both high and low frequency. Prof. Daniele has been elected a Corresponding Member of the National Academy of Sciences of Torino since 2013, and is now a National Member (2021). He has been a chairman and invited speaker for several international symposia. He was a Guest Editor of a special issue on Electromagnetic Coupling to Transmission Lines for Electromagnetics in 1988. He is a reviewer for many international journals.

GL received a Laurea degree summa cum laude in TLCs Eng. from the University of Florence, Italy in 1999 and Ph.D. degree in Electronic Eng. at Polytechnic of Turin, Italy in Jan. 2004. In 2000 he was an officer in the Italian Air Force. In 2004 he was an Associate Researcher with the Dept. of Electronics, Polytechnic of Turin and in 2005 joined the same Dept. as an Assistant Professor, where he is currently a Full Professor. In 2003 he was the recipient of the RMTG junior award (IEEE AP-S/URSI Symp) and a Visiting Researcher in the Dept. of ECE, University of Houston. In 2018 he was recipient of the London Mathematical Society Research in Pairs grant at the University of Cambridge. His research interests comprise analytical and numerical methods for electromagnetics, wave propagation, diffraction, the Wiener–Hopf method, numerical integration, electromagnetic singularities, microwave passive components, and metamaterials. He has authored about 100 peer-reviewed scientific publications, including two Wiley monographs. He is a Senior Member of IEEE and URSI. He was associate editor of the IEEE TAP (2016-19), where he currently serves as Track Editor (2019-). He is associate editor of the IEEE Access and IET Electronics Letters. He was an IEEE AP-S AdCom member for the triennium 2016-18 and 2019-21. He served in several editions with different roles in the Organizing Committee of ICEAA, IEEE APWC, IEEE AP-S/URSI and as 2019 Programme Organizer at INI, University of Cambridge.
