Ítalo Silva starts his Secondment at UC
Ítalo Silva is already at the University of Coimbra (UC) to perform a four-month secondment. Ítalo is a student of the Federal University of Alagoas (UFAL) where he just finished his master’s degree working with architecture-centric software development processes, under the supervision of Prof. Patrick Brito and Prof. Baldoino Fonseca.
Ítalo will use this time to work with Prof. Marco Vieira and to get involved with the activity of the local group, which activity is focused on the development of dependable and secure systems. This will allow Ítalo to find new research topics to pursue in the near future, for instance to start a PhD.
The initial secondment presentation, entitled “A decision-making tool to support architectural designs based on Quality Attributes”, is planned for the next week. Among other research activity, the presentation will present a tool that supports young architects in selecting the architectural style to use based on the system requirements and quality attributes. As usual, the presentation will be inserted in the context of the regular seminars of CISUC-SSE group, which attracts local professors, researchers and students.
