    I am currently an Associate Professor at the Institute of Computing - University of Campinas. My research interests are on aspects of distributed systems and computer networks, mainly in scheduling and resource allocation in grid/cloud/fog computing systems and their underlying network infrastructure. I am also interested in virtualization, future internet, green computing, and internet of things (IoT).

    After receiveing my Bachelor's degree in Computer Science from the Departament of Informatics at the Federal University of Parana, I have carried out research on workflow scheduling in grids and clouds during my Masters, Ph.D., and Post-doc at the Univesity of Campinas, as well as during my research period at the School of Computer Science - University of Manchester, UK.

   In 2016/2017, I did a post-doc at the Rutgers Discovery Informatics Institute - RDI2, at the The Rutgers Univeristy, USA, focusing on resource allocation for Fog Computing.
