Small CV

CV Lattes
After obtaining my
undergraduate degree in Electrical Engineering in 1984 at Polythecnic
School, University
of São Paulo
(EPUSP), I have worked as a hardware and software designer at some engineering
companies, from 1984 to 1989. During this period, I was involved with several
design activities, such as a simulator for the Navy Ministry, an emulator for
the São Paulo Subway Company, and some automation projects for energy companies
of São Paulo State, like ELETROPAULO and CESP.
My academic experience has
started in 1988, when I was engaged as a research assistant at EPUSP. I have
taught since then several undergraduate courses, both in the digital hardware
and software areas, as well as some graduate and specialty courses for
engineers, in the artificial intelligence and multi-agent systems domais.
I have obtained my MsC
degree in Electrical Engineering from EPUSP in 1991, in the Distributed
Artificial Intelligence field, under the supervision of Prof. Eleri Cardozo. My MsC dissertation concerns the design of a
monitoring facility for an object-oriented distributed problem solving kernel.
From September 1991 to
October 1995, I has been engaged as a Phd student at the LIFIA laboratory
(currently LEIBNIZ), at IMAG, Grenoble, France, where I have worked in the MAGMA group,
headed by Dr. Yves Demazeau, in the field of Multi-Agent Systems. Part of
my Phd studies were also carried out in the PSCS group (currently IAMCI) of
the Istituto di Psicologia del CNR (currently ISTC
), Rome, Italy, in
the team headed by Dr. Cristiano Castelfranchi. I have obtained my Phd degree in
Computer Engineering in 1995. My thesis subject is about social reasoning in
multi-agent systems.
I have obtained my
Associate Professorship degree in Artificial Intelligence from EPUSP in 2003.
The subject of my thesis was social and organizacional reasoning in multi-agent
systems.
Among other colleagues, I was one of the founders of two subareas
in the multiagent systems domain, namely Multi-Agent-Based Simulation
(MABS) and Coordination,
Organization, Institutions and Norms in Agent Systems (COIN), that
have originated international workshop series since 1998. I was
involved in the organization of several of these workshops: MABS´98,
MABS´02 , MABS´05, OOOP´05, COIN@AAMAS´07, MABS´08, MABS'11 and
COIN@AAMAS´12.
Among the several Program and Organization Committees I have been
involved with, the following should be stressed: I was one of the
AAMAS'09 Program
Co-Chairs, and the
AAMAS´07 Tutorial Chair. I was a
member of the Conference Senior Program Committee in AAMAS´02 , AAMAS´04 , AAMAS´06, AAMAS´12 and AAMAS´13.
In Brazil, I participated with other colleagues in the creation of the
Brazilian Workshop on Social
Simulation (BWSS) and was a member of the Steering Committee of the Workshop-Escola
de Sistemas de Agentes, seus Ambientes e ApliCações (WESAAAC). I
have also organized several events, like SBIA/IBERAMIA´00 , ENIA´03 , and
SBIA/IBERAMIA´06.
I have presented several tutorials, minicourses and invited
talks about several aspects of multi-agent systems, as the tutorials presented
at AAMAS´04 , European Agent System
Summer School´05, European Agent System
Summer School´07, AAMAS´08 and the keynote speaker talks presented at MICAI´05, SBIA´10 and IBERAMIA'12.
I am an Editorial Board member of the Journal of Artificial
Societies and Social Simulation (JASSS), Mediterranean
Journal of Artificial Intelligence, Computación y
Sistemas, Revista
Iberoamericana de Inteligencia Artificial and
The Knowledge
Engineering Review.
I was indicated as a Distinguished
Speaker by Association for
Computing Machinery (ACM) in 2012.
I was a member of the Steering Committee of the Brazilian
Computer Society (SBC) from 2005 to 2009, and was also the coordinator of
its Artificial Intelligence Special Interest Group (CEIA) from 2000 to 2002.
I was the coordinator
of the International Relations Committee of EPUSP between 1998 and
2000, and also a
member of the Information Technology
Coordination Team of USP (CTI), from 2001 to 2006. Currently, I am
an Associate Professor at the Computer Engineering Department of
EPUSP. Moreover, since May 2010, I am playing the role of director of
the Electronic Computing Center
of USP.

Current Projects
SRA
ORG4APC
ORG4APC (Organization of agents for
Agent Programming Contest) is a project whose main goal is to test the
use of agent organizational programming in a herding competition
developped by the researchers in the field. Particularly, we are using
the MOISE+ model, developped by our group in cooperation with other
universities. This project has the scientific cooperation of the MAS
group in DAS/UFSC, coordinated by Prof. Jomi Fred Hübner.
MEDEIA
MEDEIA is a project whose goal is to
propose a framework for building software engineering methods for
organization centered MAS, using both existing AOSE methods and Agent
Organization Models. We are adopting
Situational Method Engineering techniques to develop the framework,
which claims that particular methods should be built on demand, based
on particular project situations, by reusing parts or fragments of
already existing methods. This project has the scientific cooperation
of the MAS group in LIP6, in
particular with Prof. Zahia Guessoum (UPMC,
Paris).
SRA
SRA (Social reasoning
agents) is a project originated by my Phd program. It addresses conceptual,
theoretical and implementation aspects of autonomous agents that reason about
the others in order to interact in an open multi-agent world. The main idea is
that non-benevolent agents cooperate because they are complementary, i.e., they
need each other as resources to achieve their own goals. This project has the
scientific collaboration of PSCS group
(IP, Rome).
Past Projects
NEGOWAT
NEGOWAT is an European Community project
involving several partners, and headed by CIRAD,
France. The main goal of the project is to combine multi-agent modelling with
role game playing in order to facilitate negotiations over land and water
conflicts in Latin-America periurban upstream catchments. The project has
started in 2003, having a partial support from FAPESP.
ONTREP
ONTREP (Ontology of Reputation for Agents) is a project whose goal is to
propose a functional ontology of reputation for agents. This ontology should
represent the current scientific knowledge about reputation, both in Human
Sciences and Artificial Intelligence. The project has started in 2005, with the
support of FAPESP.
ORGMAS
ORGMAS (Organizations and
Learning in Multi-Agent Systems) is a binational project involving USP and Ecole de Mines de Saint Etienne , more
specifically the group headed by Prof. Olivier Boissier. The project is an
extension of the MOISE project, and its goal is to extend the MOISE model
to characterize and implement organization structures. It has started in 2004.
SIMCOG
SIMCOG (Simulation of Cognitive
Agents) is a binational project involving USP and the AI group of Faculty of Sciences of University of Lisbon ,
headed by Prof. Helder Coelho. The main goal of the project is to develop a
generic platform for multi-agent based simulation for cognitive agents. It has
started in 2001, and was supported by FAPESP during the period 2002/2004.
AGINF
AGINF (Agentes Inteligentes
para Análise e Recuperação da Informação ) is a binational CAPES/SCyT project
involving USP (POLI and ICMC) and ISITAN group of University of
Tandil, Argentina, and headed by Prof.
Maria Carolina Monard , from ICMC/USP. The main goal of the project is to
investigate several AI/MAS techniques in order to build a robust information
retrieval system. It has started in 1999 and it has finished in 2002.
DOMAS
DOMAS (Dynamic
Organizations in Multi-Agent Systems) was a binational CNPq/ICCTI project
involving USP, UFRGS and the AI group of Faculty
od Sciences of University of Lisbon , headed by Prof. Helder Coelho. The
main goal of the project was to investigate several AI/MAS models to cope with
dymanic changes in organizational structure. It has started in 2000 and it was
finished in 2002.
GUARANÁ
The LTI was one of the
first academic laboratories in Brazil to apply IA techniques in the robot
soccer domain. Our first team, named FUTEPOLI , was held in
1997 and headed by Prof. Anna Helena
Reali Costa. Our second team, called GUARANÁ , was the world
vice-champion in MIROSOT'98 competition, held in Paris, France, during the FIFA
World Cup.
MAPPEL
MAPPEL (Multi-Agent Collaborative
and Adversarial Perception, Planning, Execution and Learning) is a binational
CNPq/NSF project (PROTEM program) involving UNICAMP, USP (IME and EPUSP) and
CMU and headed by Prof. Anna Helena
Reali Costa, from EPUSP. The main goal of the project is to investigate
several AI/MAS techniques in order to build a robust robot soccer team. It has
started in 1999 and it has finished in 2003.
MOISE
MOISE (Model of Organization for
Multi-Agent System) is a binational project involving USP and Ecole de Mines de Saint Etienne , more
specifically the group headed by Prof. Olivier Boissier. The main goal of the
project is to investigate a particular MAS model to characterize and implement
organization structures. It has started in 1997 and it has finished in 2003.
NALAMAS
NALAMAS (Natural
Language and Multi-Agent Systems) was a national CNPq PROTEM-III project
involving UFRGS, PUC-RS, UNICAMP, USP and UFSC. The main goal of the project
was to investigate the advantages and drawbacks of using a multi-agent approach
to natural language processing (NLP), specifically concerning Portuguese
language. It has started in 1996 and finished by the end of 1998.
SACI
SACI (Simple Agent Communication
Infrastructure) is a project involving USP the AI group of UFPE , headed by Prof. Geber Ramalho. The
main goal of the project is to provide a computational infrastructure for
cognitive agents communication, developed in Java. We intend to develop a
version written in Java Microedition, which could be run on celular phones. It
has started in 1999 and it has finished in 2003.
SEANC
SEANC (Sistema de Apoio à
Ancoragem) was an engineering project whose goal is to specify and implement a
knowledge based system to support the procedure of mooring lines of oil sea
platforms. This research has been conducted by Petrobrás and the Oceanic
Engineering Department, from 1997 to 2000.
