INdT

INdT is the Nokia Institute of Technology a non profit research organization sponsored by Nokia. This is the place were I am currently working and I am very proud and happy of being part of this team!

We are the Open Source Mobile Technology Center, located in Recife, northeast of Brazil, and I am part of the Digital TV Group.

Beside that I am finishing my Masters Degree in Computer Science in the Center of Informatics (CIn) of the Federal University of Pernambuco (UFPE). My research is about Middleware for Mobile TV and Pervasive Systems.

Until I finish my thesis I will not have much social life and will have to spent my weekends in front of my computer...hopefully it will not last forever :)

Imagine Cup 2005

I have created a blog specially for my last trip! It was my first time in Japan, 1 month ago, where I participated in a programming contest, the Imagine Cup World Finals 2005. The brazilian team, which I was part of, in the Software Design Category conquered the 4th place! An amazing experience, for meeting so many different people in a completely different culture.
