Since 19th June 1985, I'm doing research at Instituto de Engenharia de Sistemas e Computadores (INESC Porto) in Information Systems, Databases and Software Engineering. At the moment I'm a researcher of Information and Computer Graphic Systems (USIG).

From October 1991 to January 1995, I was doing research in Persistent Programming, in the FIDE project, University of Glasgow, Department of Computing Science, working in my PhD in the Persistence and Distribution Group.

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: 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.
