Papers & Publications

All of my paper published in periodics, as well as student-oriented work (PhD/Doc students), can also be found in my Lattes curriculum or Google Scholar pages. These last ones, more often updated.

The Lattes Platform is an information system (integrated database, web-based query interface, etc.) maintained by the Brazilian federal government to manage information on science, technology, and innovation related to individual researches and institutions working in Brazil.
