Joana Dumas

Assistant to the Centre Coordinator

I was born in 1987 in Porto, the city where I grew up and where I still live in. I was raised by my mother and by my grandmother, the two most important persons of my life.

I studied Counselorship and Translations Studies at ISCAP and started working at INESC TEC as a trainee in 2008. During that time, I collaborated with CESE secretariat. The following year, after obtaining my degree, I was hired by INESC to give support to CRACS and, in 2013, also to LIAAD.

I love travelling, listening to music, going to concerts, reading and being with my friends.

I consider myself a feminist and an animal and LGBTQI rights activist. Besides that, I am also a vegan and "mother" of six cats.

Centres

Advanced Computing Systems

The Centre for Advanced Computing Systems (CRACS) strives for scientific excellence in the areas of programming languages, parallel and distributed computing, information mining, security and privacy, focusing on developing scalable software systems for multidisciplinary applications in Engineering, Life Sciences, Social Networks, the Internet of Things, and more. We explore deep theoretical and practical knowledge related to the design and development of programming languages and middleware for advanced computing systems - including parallel, distributed, high-performance, cloud, wireless, and IoT systems -, while mastering the concepts and methodologies that underpin trust, privacy, and security in computing systems. Our research environment brings together talented junior and senior researchers, most of whom are university lecturers. Together, they form the critical mass and scientific expertise required to fulfil our mission.
