Doctor of Telecommunication Engineering from UPM in 2003 and Associate Professor at the University of Castilla-La Mancha (UCLM) in the area of Computer Architecture and Technology since 2019. He has been teaching at UCLM since 1998, holding different faculty positions at the Computer Science School and at the School of Industrial and Aerospace Engineering in Toledo. His research activity has developed along four lines of work: 1) design methodologies for complex heterogeneous systems, 2) the application of concepts related to distributed systems in the design of embedded electronic systems, sensor networks, and large-scale distributed services; 3) security in electronic systems; and 4) the application of computer vision and artificial intelligence techniques to a wide variety of topics (e.g., ambient intelligence, defect analysis, bioaerosol classification). He has participated in more than 40 research projects, 10 of them as principal investigator. He is the author of 21 articles in specialized journals and 67 communications at scientific congresses. He is also the author of two patents and has supervised three doctoral theses. Since 2019, he has been the research coordinator for the MANTIS research group at the University of Castilla-La Mancha.
