Bio

Cristiano Pereira holds a Bachelor degree in Computer Science from the Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Minas Gerais (PUC-MG), a Master of Science degree in Computer Science from Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, and a PhD degree in Computer Science and Engineering from the University of California, San Diego (UCSD). He worked at Intel for about 11 years developing tools and techniques for simulation systems and parallel programming. Since mid-2019, he has been working at Apple Inc. as a system software developer.

Research and Work Interests

Cristiano is interested in computer architecure, system software and tools to assist computer programming, including debugging, testing, analysis and simulation.
