The Art of Contest Programming is open to all UAM students. Its goal is to teach programming-contest skills, useful in such contests such as ACM-ICPC and, at a regional level, CUPCAM (where our teams have a great track record). These contests are both instructive and fun. Join the team!
Research
My main field of research has been clustered graph visualization, which
I have applied to Adaptive Hypermedia (AH) courses, device network
visualization, concept maps and similarity analysis. The clustered
graph visualization framework I developed, Clover, is available
online, as is the Wotan AH
course system, for which a Clover-based editor was developed as part of
my PhD thesis.
I am also very proud of my work in the AC anti-plagiarism system.
I am a
member of the OPAH group,
which is part of the larger GHIA
group. I am also a participant in the HADA project, directed to help
disabled and elderly enjoy the benefits of technology.
