Research Projects

Projects I have participated in.
2022 - 2023

CINEMA

Computação INteligente, Escalável, Móvel e Altamente disponível na Internet

Funding: FAPESP
Powerd by: UFPR, UTFPR, UFSM, and UNIOESTE.

This project acts on several innovative work fronts for the Internet. Its main foundation is the revolution of the Internet through virtualization technologies. In particular, the project focuses on Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) technology. Among the topics investigated are: high availability of virtualized network functions and services; provision of innovative distributed services (implemented with NFV technology) by the infrastructure itself; investigation of Distributed Artificial Intelligence techniques for the management of NFV ecosystems. The project also includes other research fronts, such as the search for efficient and scalable distributed solutions based on the VCube virtual topology; and the implementation of robust components applied in the context of 5G networks based on the O-RAN (Open Radio Access Network) architecture.

2018 - 2019

GT-FENDE

Federated Ecosystem for OfferiNg, Distribution, and Execution of Virtual Network Functions

Funding: RNP
Powerd by: UFPR, UFRGS, and UFSM.
Partners: Universität Zürich, UNICAMP, Universiteit Gent, and UFCE.

It is an ecossystem to support the desing, development and instantiation of NFV-based services, in addition to a marketplace for offering and distribution of Virtual Network Functions (VNFs). FENDE presents itself as a unique system of its kind, and enables the distribution of both networks functions and services, in a manner that is akin to virtual marketplaces (e.g., Google Play and Apple Store). FENDE also allows the management of services and functions, including Service Function Chainning (SFC).

Experience

Yes. I have been around.
Nov 2024 - Current

Visiting Researcher

University of North Carolina at Charlotte

Charlotte - NC, USA
2021 - 2022

Software Developer

SC Clouds

Florianópolis - SC, Brazil

I worked on the development of new features and bug fixes for the Apache CloudStack cloud computing platform. Working on the entire platform stack, among the main tools used were included languages like Java and Javascript, database management systems like MySQL and MariaDB, and technologies like Maven, Spring, Vue, Ant Design, and others.

2021 - 2021

Software Developer

Híbrido

Brusque - SC, Brazil

I had two lines of work. The first one was related to the design and development of Java web applications. The second line was focused on the development of software applications (middlewares) able to integrate heterogeneous systems. In both cases, the main technologies involved were: Java, Spring Boot Framework, Angular, and Maven.

2016 - 2018

Substitute Professor

Federal Institute of Mato Grosso - IFMT

Pontes e Lacerda - MT, Brazil

I taught classes for technical courses integrated to high school and higher education. Some disciplines: Introduction to Computer Networks, Advanced Topics in Computer Networks, Introduction to Computer Programming, Programming in Network Environments, Open Network Systems (Linux) and Fundamentals of Information Security.

2012 - 2016

Computer Technician

Super Soft Informática

Pontes e Lacerda - MT, Brazil

I worked with preventive and corrective maintenance in computers and printers, structuring of computer networks (network cabling, file and printer sharing, asset configurations and so forth), management of MS platforms servers Windows and Linux, installation and configuration of surveillance and monitoring systems, among other activities.
