Abstract
I arrived in Italy to join Ugo’s group after getting my MsC degree on December 1989, on a Friday night, after a 15 hours trip crossing the ocean. Saturday morning, at 7:30, I received a call at the apart hotel where I was staying. Ugo had the theory that it was better to get over jet lags as soon as possible. At 8:30 AM we had our first meeting to discuss categories, models for concurrent computation, and process algebras.
After that, we had a lot of meetings. Sometimes the discussions were captured in papers that we published, but as very often happens in academia (too often for my taste) most of the knowledge was lost.
