Bio

As I recently moved to Universidade do Minho, I've a new web page: http://www.di.uminho.pt/~jmc.

Currently, I'm an Assistant Professor at Universidade do Minho, Department of Informatics, and an integrated member of the research center NOVA LINCS. Before I was an Assitant Professor at Universidade Nova de Lisboa.

My research is mainly focused on Programming Languages (PLs) and Software Engineering (SE), where I try to improve the effectiveness, efficiency, and usability of software. I have contributed with such techniques for spreadsheets, and for improving software energy consumption.

I obtained my PhD degree in Computer Science from Universidade do Minho in 2011. I was then a post-doctoral fellow at Universidade do Minho and Oregon State University. I was also an Invited Professor at Escola Superior de Tecnologia e Gestão de Felgueiras - Instituto Politécnico do Porto.
