Atividade Desenvolvida

• River Cure project, at,  Lisbon, Portugal, March 2021-June2021 Scientific supervisor:  AlbertoRodrigues da Silva, Joao Carlos Ferreira This  project was about becoming acquainted with and investigating concepts  such as Model-Driven Engineering (MDE), Domain-Specific Language (DSL),  initial research challenges in MDE for Internet of Things (IoT)  applications, and some related tools such as XTEXT, Sirius, and EMF.
• MDE4IoT (Model-Driven Engineering of IoT Services.)”,  Lisbon, Portugal, July 2021- January 2022  Scientific supervisor:  Alberto Rodrigues da Silva, Joao Carlos Ferreira This  project involved the following tasks: implementing a sample IoT system  with Sirius and automatically generating code, writing a survey paper  about investigation tools and techniques MDE4IoT, investing challenges  Machin learning for MDE4IoT, and becoming acquainted with ML-Quadrat,  writing a proposal.
• Safe Cities, Porto, Portugal, Jan 2022-Sep 2022  Scientific supervisor: Ines Dutra   The  "Safe Cities” project is about Sensor Data Mining and Automatic  Learning and working on data that can come from various sources and can  be of different types and varieties data can come from: Fire alarms,  Environmental pollution meters, Optical, thermal, or acoustic sensors,  Data from customized mobile applications, Data from other subprojects.  My  task in this project was: becoming acquainted with Time series  modelling techniques: ARIMA, Holt Winter, LSTM and training this model  for a fire detection system and forecasting the value of some sensor  (Opt1, Temp and so on)
• PhD project, Lisbon, Portugal, July2022-at present  Scientific  supervisor: Alberto Rodrigues da Silva, Joao Carlos Ferreira  ,Armin  moin    My PhD project is about enabling Time series modelling  techniques on ML-Quadrat (ML2). Ml2 is a Model-Driven Software  Engineering (MDSE) tool with full code generation and out-of-the-box  Machine Learning (ML) support at the modeling layer for creating smart  services for the Internet of Things (IoT) and Cyber-Physical Systems  (CPS). This tools only support supervised, unsupervised, and semi  supervised ML techniques. In my PhD project I am applying Time series  modelling techniques for ML2.
• Reviewer in EAI INTSYS 2021 - 5th EAI International Conference on Intelligent Transport Systems
• Demo chair in EAI INTSYS 2020 - 4th EAI International Conference on Intelligent Transport
• Experience of SupervisionsCo-supervisor,  Patrick Henrique Soares de Medeiros, " Calculation of the ecological  footprint of freight carriers". ISCTE-IUL, Lisbon, Portugal,  2021–Present.
  Co-supervisor, Joana de Castro Faria de  Matos Ascenso, "Intelligent, sustainable and efficient road freight  transport operations". ISCTE-IUL, Lisbon, Portugal, 2021–Present.
