Biography

Mário Alves was born in 1968. He received the Degree in 1991, and the M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in electrical and computer engineering from the University of Porto, Porto, Portugal, in 1995 and 2003, respectively.
He is a Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the Polytechnic Institute of Porto (ISEP/IPP) and a Research Associate of the CISTER/IPP-HURRAY Research Unit, focusing on real-time, distributed and embedded computing systems. He participated in several international projects related to industrial communication systems (e.g., CCE-CNMA, RFieldbus). He has been serving as a reviewer and has published in top conferences (e.g., RTSS, ECRTS, ICDCS, OPODIS, MASS) and journals (e.g., IEEE Transactions on Industrial Informatics, Elsevier ComNet, Springer RTSJ) in his expertise areas. His current research interests are mainly devoted to improving quality-of-service in wireless sensor networks by using standard and commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) technology (ART-WiSe, open-ZB). He is currently involved in international projects on networked embedded systems (ArtistDesign), cooperating objects (CONET), large-scale embedded monitoring using wireless sensor networks (EMMON) and cyber-physical systems for monitoring critical physical infrastructures (PT-CMU).
Prof. Alves received Best Paper Awards (e.g., ECRTS'07) and supervised the EWSN'09 Best M.Sc. Thesis Award. He actively participated in the organization and TPC of several international conferences and workshops, e.g., IEEE WFCS'00, ECRTS'03, and EWSN'10.
