Equipa

Secondary Education in Finance and Economics. BSc in Computer Science – Information Systems (IPLeiria, Portugal). Post-BSc in Computer Science – Distributed Systems (UNova, Portugal). MsC in Parallel, Reconfigurable and Evolutionary Computing for Solving Optimization Problems (UNEX, Spain). PhD in Meta-Heuristics Effectiveness Analysis for the Radio Network Design Problem (UNEX, Spain), including bio optimization multi-objective techniques inspired to solve NP-Hard problems. Associated Professor at IPLEIRIA, he has been teaching several courses (curricular units) of Computer/Software Engineering courses, such as, Full Stack Web Development, Enterprise Application Integration, Information Security, Systems Interoperability, Advanced Systems and Services Programming and Enterprise Architectures, among others. He supervised several Bachelor and Master works in Computer Science, having participated as a jury in 2 PhD works and more than 20 MsC works in the field of Computer Science, between IPLEIRIA and Instituto Politécnico de Viseu. He was also responsible for the creation and development of a full undergraduate course in “Information System Programming”. He is currently managing the curricula internships leveraging students among regional enterprises. He has also been summoned for several juries for Portuguese specialist grade assignment, in several Polytechnic Institutes all over the country. In addition to the publication of articles in national and international scientific journals, he was responsible for top quality publications, including “Benchmarking a Wide Spectrum of Metaheuristic Techniques for the Radio Network Design Problem”, IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON EVOLUTIONARY COMPUTATION and a chapter of the book “Book of Biologically-inspired Optimization Methods: Parallel Algorithms, Systems and Applications”. It also presents several communications at national and international conferences. As an effective member of the Center for Research in Informatics and Communications (CIIC) of IPLeiria and Associate Member of CINAMIL - Research Center of the Portuguese Military Academy, he was part of the project “Emulation of the Computerized Battery System, Research, Development and Innovation Center in the Military Academy”. Principal investigator and Coordinator of the Iberian optimization group RND (Radio Network Design), participates in international R&D groups, namely the MONTH (Ministry of Science and Technology - Spanish Government): projects “OPLINK: UEX. Optimización y Ambientes de Red "(2005-2007) and" MSTAR: Multiobjective Metaheuristics and Parallelism in Communication "(2009-2011).
