About Project
PLATAFORMA DE PREPARAÇÃO DE CONTEÚDOS AUDIOVISUAIS PARA INGEST NA CLOUD
The MOG CLOUD SETUP aims to develop tools for post-production of high quality audiovisual content for the television industry that allow the automation in inserting and/or replacing content in TV programming and that can work both inside a radio broadcast station as well as in a cloud-based environment. This project is of extreme importance for the television and audiovisual content industries as it allows the automation of processes that are extremely expensive nowadays. This way, it will facilitate and speed up the content formatting that must be displayed in multiple distribution platforms. Project Datasheet

Pedro Miguel Machado Soares Carvalho
I was born in the district of Porto. I got a degree in Eletric and Computer Engeneering in 2001, a Master degre in Networks and Communication Services in 2004 and the PhD degree in Eletric and COmputer Engeneering in 2012, all from the Faculty of Engeneering of the University of Porto. I've been a collaborator of INESC TEC since 2001 and I'm currently a Senior Researcher at the Center of Telecommunications and Multimedia. I'm also an Invited Adjunct Professor at the School f Engeneering of the Polythecnic Institute of Porto. My current reseach interests include image and video processing, multimedia systems and computer vision.

Manuel Bernardo Martins Barbosa
I am an Associate Professor at the Department of Computer Science in the Faculty of Science of the University of Porto (DCC-FCUP) and a researcher at HASLab/INESC TEC. My research interests lie in Cryptography and Information Security and its intersection with Program Verification.
I hold a Ph.D. in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from the Newcastle University, an M.Sc. from the same University, and a degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Porto. In the past I have been a visiting researcher at the University of Bristol, IT Porto and École Normale Supérieure. Between 2023 and 2025 I was a research fellow at the Max Planck Institute for Security and Privacy.
I have been working on the development of high-assurance cryptographic implementations for the last 20 years, aiming to bridge the gap between theoretical security and real-world security. I am particularly interested in provable security and its interplay with the formal verification of cryptographic proofs and cryptographic software implementations.

Associated Centres
High-Assurance Software
At the High-Assurance Software Laboratory (HASLab), we improve practice through theory, creating and implementing software that goes beyond mere functionality: we ensure it is correct, resilient, and secure against failures and attacks. Our team of researchers, scientists, and engineers has proven expertise in software engineering, developing methods and tools to design and integrate robust software; in distributed systems, exploring distribution and replication to ensure scalability and reliability; and in information security, addressing cybersecurity challenges and improving systems with advanced, secure cryptographic protocols, thus minimising vulnerabilities. With a multidisciplinary approach supported by solid theoretical principles, we develop innovative solutions for critical software, secure cloud infrastructures, and privacy-aware big data management, driving scientific advancement, innovation, and high-level consultancy. In addition, we complement our core expertise with work in human-computer interaction, programming languages, computational mathematics, and quantum computing - because we believe the future of trustworthy software is built on knowledge and innovation.

Telecommunications and Multimedia
The Centre for Telecommunications and Multimedia (CTM) welcomes close to 200 members, including at least 100 integrated researchers who carry out scientific work in the fields of communications, Artificial Intelligence, and computer science and engineering. The Centre’s activities cover several Research and Development (R&D) domains: <ul> <li>Communications and Electronics <ul> <li>Radio Frequency Technologies</li> <li>Optoelectronics</li> <li>Microelectronics</li> <li>Wireless Communication Networks </li> </ul> </li> <li>Computer Perception <ul> <li>Computer Vision applied to Medical Imaging</li> <li>Computer Vision applied to Digital Media</li> <li>Computer Audio applied to Music</li> </ul> </li> </ul> With multidisciplinary teams that include dozens of PhDs, CTM is strongly committed to both European and national research projects, as well as consultancy projects with industry.
