"[...] contacting with
the new world, unlike the other european, portuguese people were
not suprised with anything [extractable from a letter by Pêro Vaz
de Caminha]. This kind of inocence of us may be considered a devine
blessing. Our modesty is a wealth." Eduardo Lourenço in Público

What I do
- Research at GECAD about
Ontology Engineering, Semantic Web, Multi-Agent-Systems, Distributed
and Intelligent Manufacturing Systems.
Hobbies
- Art. I don't have much time to visit exhibitions and even
less the money to buy any kind of piece of art, but at least I'm a
frequent visitor of the Modern
Art Museum of Porto. Besides that, I use to say that I make some kind of sculpture...
