  • Design of the ISIS Network Based Platform (ISIS-NBP) proposal under contract with Bireme-PAHO-WHO, and under supervision of Milton Lapido, Abel L. Packer, Adalberto Tardelli and Ernesto Spinack. This is a proposal for a scalable architecture to build digital libraries. This proposal was approved by UNESCO.
  • Design and development of a MRCP MediaServer (Media Resource Control Protocol) to integrate with CPqD's speech-synthesis engine. Implemented in Python using the Twisted framework, targetting the Solaris platform.
  • Design and development of PAC and PGC projects, mentoring SERPRO dev-team for a project comissioned by the Ministry of Education in Brazil. This project aimed to gather data from all (~200.000) public schools in Brazil. It consisted of a lightweight 3-tier Python web app packed to run off-line and self-contained in heterogeneous desktop systems.
  • Design and development of software components for CPqD's dotIP Project. A customizable, high-performance and fault-tolerant firewall was built based on Linux/iptables and remote controlled by a Python server that talked directly to the Linux kernel. This project was under contract with StarOne/Embratel.
  • Migration of the Telex Network into MS Windows terminal emulators connected through a X.25 network (X.25 and X.28). Design and implementation of telex emulators, X.25 drivers stack (VxD's) and gateway servers. This project was hired by Embratel.
  • Design and development of a Real-Time Satellite Signal Monitoring System, hired by COMSAT.
  • Design and development of Vehicle tracking system gateway through a GSM network, hired by Controlsat/Schaim.
