 As this HP is a miscellaneous of favourites subjects and issues, I put it in a "neutral" domain.
 This way, any profissional link, political parties or alliances are disconnected from them.
 All contents are under my responsability.

 Finally, the portuguese version is always most updated for an obvious reasons;
 my students are from Brazil! Reminding you, this home page is just an 
 identification,
 not a profissional reference. It also tries be a minimalist home page,
 I let for your own imagination how it could be improved.
 Anyway, don't hesitate to contact me if you have any trouble and suggestion. 


 Summarized CV: 
 I obtained my Electrical Engineering degree in 1981 from the State University of Santa 
 Catarina (UDESC).
 I started a MSc? programme at the Federal University of Paraíba (UFPB) in 1982 which was
 interrupted in 1983. After a couple of years, I continued my studies at UFPB and obtained my 
 Master degree in August of 1987.
 Immedately afterwards I began to give lectures on computing at the State University of Ceará 
 (UECE) up to 1989. During this year I moved to Federal University of Alagoas (UFAL).
 In October 1991, I´ve started my PhD? study n Computer Science at the Aeronautical Institute of
 Technology (ITA). After exactly four years, in 1995, I went back to work at UFAL, and held back 
 my PhD? studies.
 I got to leave UFAL in 1996 and returned to my "mother" university (UDESC) but now as a lecturer 
 in Computer Science (CS). Finally, I´ve obtained my PhD? degree in Computer Science from ITA 
 in April of 1997.
 Since 1996 I have been enrolled in several courses at UDESC, mainly lecturing courses in CS. 

Thesis:

  * Master Degree in Electrical Engineering Department, UFPB, Brasil, 1987. The dissertation title is:
