Breno is keynote speaker at the Workshop on Modeling and Simulation of Software-Intensive Systems (MSSiS), one of the workshops of the 10th edition of The Brazilian Conference on Software: Theory and Practice (CBSoft 2019).
In his talk, he will discuss the role of simulation in software engineering research, and compile the existing processes and guidelines into a comprehensive life cycle.
A delegation of students from the Institute of Computing (IC) has just come back from a research visit to DiDi Chuxing in Beijing, China. DiDi is a Chinese company offering app-based transportation services, and it has recently aquired the Brazilian company behind 99 (formerly 99 Taxi).
Six students from IC-UNICAMP and six from Poli-USP were invited to spend some days at the DiDi premises in Beijing. Visiting students were involved in workshops, a hackathon, and other activities revolving around the topic of intelligent transportation. The delegation from IC-UNICAMP was led by Prof. Breno de França, head of the LASER research group, and included the participation of Sheila Venero, PhD student from our group.
