Short Bio

I am an associate professor at the Institute of Computing, University of Campinas (Unicamp).

From 2007 to Dec. 2010, I worked as a Research Scientist at the Intel Labs, in California, where I investigated and developed dynamic compilation techniques to enhance state-of-the-art HW/SW co-designed microprocessors, including automatic binary parallelization, dynamic binary translation and optimization techniques, and hardware support to accelerate single-threaded applications. During this period, I employed the microcode compression algorithms and tools I developed in my PhD thesis to improve the manufacturing process of Intel microprocessors and was awarded four divisional recognition awards.

Since I joined Unicamp, in Dec. 2010, I have been teaching and advising undergraduate and graduate students at the Institute of Computing at Unicamp. I also served as the head of the Computer Systems Department and as the associate coordinator of the computer science graduate program. I'm currently coordinating the Discovery lab.

I have been developing research projects with support from the main Brazillian research funding agencies, including FAPESP, CNPq and CAPES, and also from several industry players, such as AMD, Intel, Samsung, Motorola, and Petrobras. In these projects, I have been supervising Post-docs, Ph.D., M.Sc., and Undergraduate students on research topics that include machine learning, high-performance computing, cloud computing, computer architecture, compilers, and others.

My Currículo Lattes contains more information about my publications, awards, projects, former and current students, and community services.
