Biography

Dr. Andreu Moreno Vendrell got the BS degree in Telecommunications Engineering in 1995 and the PhD in Telecommunications Engineering in 2000, both from Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (Spain). Since 2005 his research is related to parallel and distributed computing. His main interests are focused on high performance parallel applications, automatic performance analysis and dynamic tuning, and agent based simulation systems. He has been involved in the definition of performance models for automatic and dynamic performance tuning and in the development of a new benchmark for agent based frameworks. He is lecturer at the Escola Universitària Salesiana de Sarrià, associated college of Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. He is IEEE member.

Scientific interests

Currently the lines of research of my interest are the following: Agent-based systems. I am currently working on developing a bechmark tool that should improve performance in agent-based systems simulation. In addition, with the aim of improving the quality of university teaching, I carry out research in the field of Higher Education; in particular I research the application of new methodologies based on active learning, projects and research, such as Teaching and Research Paths (SRPs), in technical careers.

Specialties

Parallel Applications; High Performance Computer Systems; Agent-Based Systems; Active learning in Engineering Education
