Marcio Lobo Netto

Prof. Dr. Marcio Lobo Netto got his Engineer and Master degrees on Electronic Engineering at Escola Politécnica da USP, respectively in 1985 and 1990, and his Doctor degree at Technische Universität Darmstadt, in 1997. He is an assistant professor at the Department of Electronic Systems Engineering of EPUSP, where he has been teaching electronic systems and computer graphics for undergraduate courses, and artificial life, e-games, computer graphics and high performance computing for graduate courses. During his career he has been involved with projects of parallel graphic workstations, design of parallel graphical applications, systems to support parallel computation, and artificial life applications. From 1991 to 1996 he was a researcher at the Fraunhofer Institute for Computer Graphics in Darmstadt. He presented papers and courses in Brazilian and International conferences and published papers on artificial life, computer graphics and parallel processing. He is the coordinator of the Cognitive Science Research Group from USP. His current interests include cognitive computing, artificial life, virtual reality, parallel rendering and distributed graphical applications based on multi-agent systems. He is a senior member from IEEE and member from ACM-SIGGRAPH, Brazilian Computing Society and Cognitive Science Society. He was the IEEE South Brazil Section chair from 2000 to 2001. He is member of the Technical Advisory Board of the International Journal of Image and Graphics and a former TAB member of Computers & Graphics. More recently he has been involved with international relations at EPUSP, as a member of CRINT (international relations commission) and as a delegate of GEE-GEIP (chair elected for 2009-2010), an international project aiming to assist in the assessment and improvement of international opportunities for engineering students.

The International Engineering Program is a dual-degree program combining a B.A. in German, French and/or Spanish with a B.S. in one of the engineering disciplines.  IEP students study language and culture each semester along with their engineering curriculum. In the fourth year of the five-year program, they then go abroad as interns with engineering based firms in Europe or Latin America, and also as exchange students with one of our partner universities
