Student Member since’08 |
I am an intern at the Fraunhofer IIS
staying from 1st March to 31st August 2012, Dresden,
Germany, working in the SystemC-AMS group
under supervision of Karsten Einwich, granted with a doctoral research
scholarship from DAAD. My internship is in
the frame of the FP7
European Project VERDI.
I am a PhD candidate in Computer Science with the
Embedded Systems Lab since 12/2009, under supervision of Prof. Luigi Carro
and Prof. Álvaro Freitas. I am working with
transient fault detection and correction by means of software invariants and
formal models,
granted with a PhD scholarship from CAPES.
I was a Systems Engineer Intern at AIRBUS France (an EADS Company), Toulouse, France, from 03/2009
to 07/2009
under supervision of Eng. Patrice Thebault.
I
was with the Embedded Systems Lab, under supervision of Prof. Luigi Carro,
granted with
an undergraduate scholarship
from CNPq from
05/2007 to 03/2009.
I
have participated in the Brazilian Genome Project, from 08/2004 to 12/2006
under supervision
of Prof. Sandro
L. Bonatto, at PUCRS,
granted with an undergraduate research scholarship from CNPq.
