Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina
PHD Candidate / March, 2016 — April, 2020
◦ PhD Thesis: Developed efficient arithmetic circuits using alternative forms of numeric representation for high-performance digital signal processing and cryptography systems. Implemented a framework for design automation of the specialized arithmetic circuits targeting applications in digital signal processing and cryptography.
Masters Candidate / January, 2014 — March, 2016
◦ Master Thesis: Developed a framework for early semi-formal verification of mission-critical embedded software in the Master Thesis. Used the https://floripasat.ufsc.br/ as a study case. Participated in a R&D project with Freescale Semiconductors for the design of a mixed-signal verification library used in the tapeout of a power-management IP.
