Abstract
I'm involved in the integration of Planning and Scheduling techniques and BPM technologies, applied to the intelligent management of e-learning centers. At the moment, I'm doing a PhD thesis at the Department of Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence (University of Granada), centered on the translation of Business Process Management languages to Hierarchical Planning languages. I'm been working for the last six years in the University of Granada E-learning Center.
Objective. Work as software engineer/project manager in projects associated to Linux/Unix, E-learning, BPM, Artificial Intelligence, Bioinformatics.
