Bio

Nuno Amálio was awarded a PhD in Computer Science with the University of York (UK) in 2007. He holds an MSc in Software Engineering with the University of York (UK), and a BsC in Computer Science with the Faculty of Science of the University of Lisbon (Portugal). Currently, Nuno is a post-doctoral research collaborator at the University of Luxembourg. Previously, he worked as post-doctotoral research fellow at the City University of London, and he spent one year in industry working at Praxis High Integrity Systems Ltd (Bath, UK), working in the development of large-scale critical systems.

Research Interests

Software engineering, security, formal methods, visual languages and model-driven development.

Research

Currently, Nuno is developing the  Visual Contract Language (VCL) , a visual language for the formal specification of software systems at the level of requirements or high-level designs.
