Apresentação

31st InfoBlender Seminar


Date: February 8

Venue: University of Minho, Gualtar campus (Braga) | Informatics Department, Building 07 | Auditorium 2, 1st floor

Time: 2PM

Presenter: Rolando Martins, FCUP & CRACS/INESC TEC

Title: Next Generation Clouds

Abstract: The ever-increasing adoption of the Internet-of-Things (IoT) and edge computing is pushing current Cloud Computing infrastructures. The model where systems would rely on an always available back-end infrastructure(s), is now diverging towards a fully fledged multi-tiered architecture that includes edge clouds, cloudlets, private and public clouds. This is model is commonly referred as Cloud-of-Clouds. This talk’s purpose is to motivate the audience for to the next generation of Clouds by providing an insight on current research pathways and their possible applications, namely in health-care, search & rescue operations and highly dense events, e.g., sport events.

Short bio: Rolando Martins studied at Faculty of Science of the University of Porto (FCUP), where he also obtained his M.Sc in Informatics: Networks and Systems. As part of his Masters thesis (YapDss), he researched the field of distributed stack splitting in Prolog, exploring OrParallelism. He also worked at EFACEC as a software engineer/architect and later as a systems researcher. He obtained his Ph.D in Computer Sci- ence from FCUP, as a part of a collaborative effort between FCUP, EFACEC and Carnegie Mellon University (CMU), under the supervision of Fernando Silva, Luís Lopes and Priya Narasimhan. His Ph.D. research topic arose from his employment at EFACEC, where he was exposed to the difficulties underlying today’s railway systems and light-rail deployments, and came to understand the scientific challenges and the impact, of addressing the issues of simultaneously supporting real-time and fault-tolerance in such systems. He is a former member of the the Intel Science and Technology Center (ISTC), where he was involved in both Cloud Computing and Embedded Computing centers, and Parallel Data Lab (PDL) at CMU. At the same time, he was also a computer research scientist at YinZcam, a spinoff from CMU that provided mobile applications for the NBA, NHL, NFL and MLS, where he was involved on cloud computing, content management systems, OAuth and video streaming. He is currently an invited assistant professor at the department of Computer Science at FCUP and researcher at CRACS (Center for Research in Advanced Computing Systems) part of INESC TEC. Some of his research interests include security, privacy, intrusion tolerance, (secure) distributed systems, edge clouds, P2P, IoT, cloud-computing, fault-tolerance (byzantine and non-byzantine), operating systems (with special interest in the Linux kernel).
