I am an Associate Professor at FACIN-PUCRS since March 2012. Previous to this appointment, I was an associate professor at INF-UFRGS (from July 2009) and previous to that I was a Lecturer in the Department of Computer Science, Durham University, UK (July 2004 to January 2009). I read for a PhD at UCL (finished in early 1999), then worked as a visiting lecturer at INF-UFRGS (until May 2002), and from June 2002 to May 2004 I was a post-doctoral researcher at the University of Liverpool.
