About me
Research Staff Member
Research lab: Watson Research Center (Hawthorne)
I joined IBM Research in May 2008 as a Research Staff Member in the Middleware Virtualizaton Management group. The focus of my research is in resource allocation mechanisms for large scale distributed systems. I am also interested in virtualization technologies and how they apply to distribute computing environments.
Previously, I was a research assistant in the Department of Computer Science at North Carolina State University where I obtained my PhD under the guidance of George Rouskas. Prior to that, I obtained my Master Degree from the Department of Electrical Engineering in the same institution.
I received my undergraduate degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Panama, Panama, where I also worked as a lecturer.
On the professional side, I have worked as a consultant contractor for Centauri Technologies Corporation in Panama and interned at Intel Research, IBM Research (T.J. Watson) and Cisco Systems Inc. in the United States. I am a member of IEEE and ACM.
I am actively involved in improving participation of minority groups such as women and Latinos in computing-related disciplines. I am a co-founder of the Latinas in Computing community established in 2006. I am also member of SHPE, SWE, WEPAN and Systers.
