In January 2008, I became a researcher at Madrid Institute for Advanced Studies in Software Development Technologies (IMDEA-Software).
In November 2013, I was promoted to Associate Research Professor at IMDEA Software Institute.

Research

Research Interests

My main research interest is the study of mathematically rigorous approaches to understanding and developing complex software, particularly using reactive systems. More general, I am interested in applications of logic to computer science, and formal methods for the design, analysis and verification of systems. Some particular topics include:

Biographical sketch

I am nowadays a tenured researcher professor (position title "Associate Research Professor") at the Madrid Institute for Advanced Studies in Software Development Technologies.

In October 2008 I won a competition for a Scientific Researcher position at Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC).

During all of 2008 I was partially funded by a Juan de la Cierva Scholarship.

Between May 2007 and December 2007, I was a post-doctoral Scholar at the University of California at Santa Cruz, working with Luca de Alfaro.

In 2007 I received a Ph.D. in Computer Science from Stanford University. My dissertation can be accessed here:

In the Summer of 2005 I worked as a research intern for Intel.

In 2001 I received a Masters in Computer Science from Stanford University, specializing in Software Theory and Theoretical Computer Science.

Between 1997 and 1999 I worked for Lucent Technologies (Development Center in Madrid), and the School of Computer Science of UPM, and the department of Mathematics of UPM.

I received a degree in "Ingeniería de Telecomunicación"(6 years degree, BS + MSEE) from the Technical University of Madrid (UPM) in 1998. My graduation thesis Communication with Causal Order in Asynchronous Distributed Systems was awarded with "graduation with honors".

I am member of ACM, IEEE, the Computer Society of IEEE, and Mensa.
