Abstract

The proposal proponent of this project has maintained collaboration with Prof. Boukerche since 2003. Prof. Boukerche will collaborate on at least four projects in progress - all of them are part of the National Institute of Science and Technology in Critical Embedded Systems (INCT-SEC) Project. Prof. Boukerche will visit and give talks at DC/UFSCar, ICMC/USP, Poli/USP and USP-Leste. The following benefits can be highlighted from his visit: broadening of collaboration with USP and Unicamp, strenghthening of the actual collaboration with the Computer science Dept. at UFSCar and the possibility of an international collaborative project.
