Carlos M. Fernandes was born in Luanda in 1973 and lives between Lisbon, Portugal, and Granada, Spain. He graduated (Instituto Superior Técnico, 1998) in Electrotechnics Engineering and owns a master degree in the same field since 2002 (Instituto Superior Técnico). He is currently pursuing a Ph.d. on Bio-inspired Computing. From 2001 to 2005 he teached at Instituto Politécnico de Setúbal. (He is also a photographer and photography teacher.) Bio-inspired Computing is his major field of research: Genetic Algorithms, Estimation of Distribution Algorithms, Ant Colony Optimization, Particle Swarm Optimization and other metaheuristics. He is particularly interested in the hybridization of Bio-inspired Computing techniques with Self-Organization, Self-Organized Criticality Models and diversity maintenance strategies. In the present, Dynamic Optimization Problems are the mains target for applying such techniques.
