===== INESC Porto =====

Since 19th June 1985, I'm doing research at [[http://www.inescporto.pt/|Instituto de Engenharia de Sistemas e Computadores]] (INESC Porto) in Information
Systems, Databases and Software Engineering.
At the moment I'm a researcher of [[http://www.inescporto.pt/usig-en?set_language=en&cl=en|Information and Computer Graphic Systems]] (USIG).

===== Computing Science Department, University of Glasgow =====

From October 1991 to January 1995, I was doing research in Persistent Programming, in the FIDE project, [[http://www.gla.ac.uk/|University of Glasgow]],
[[http://www.dcs.gla.ac.uk/|Department of Computing Science]], working in my PhD in the [[http://www.dcs.gla.ac.uk/rapids/|Persistence and Distribution Group]].

===== PhD Thesis =====

My PhD degree in Computing Science was awarded in June 1997 by University of Glasgow.

**Title**: An Architecture for the compilation of Persistent Polymorphic Reflective Higher-order Languages

**Supervisor**: [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malcolm_Atkinson|Malcolm Atkinson]]

**Thesis**: My thesis is that an intermediate representation designed to enable high level optimisations and easy code generation can
effectively support persistent reflective higher-order polymorphic languages in the context of Scalable Persistent Foundations,
namely that it supports longevity, safety and persistence.
This was demonstrated by presenting an initial design of such a compilation system and identifying and validating its crucial
features by prototyping.
