Alan de Freitas A small website to share my stuff

Welcome to my personal website 👋



💻 I’ve been developing open-source libraries and tools for the C++ ecosystem, particularly focused on asynchronous programming and networking. This is my GitHub Profile. Feel free to fork projects, raise issues and submit PRs.

🔭 My most well-known libraries are probably Matplot++ and Boost.URL. I’ve been also maintaining other Boost libraries, such as Boost.StaticString.

👨‍🔬 I’m a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering, in the field of Computational Intelligence. I also have an M.S. and B.S. in Computer Science. I specialized in evolutionary computation 🦎 and computational intelligence 🧠 in general.

👨‍💻 I currently work as a Staff Engineer for The C++ Alliance. Previously I was a professor at the University of Ouro Preto 🧑‍🎓, a researcher at the Rolls-Royce Control & Systems University Technology Centre ✈️ and a Marie Curie researcher 🧪 within the Seventh Framework Program of the European Commission 🇪🇺, when I developed the method of Aggregation Trees 🌲 for the design of aircraft engines. I have also taught several introductory and advanced programming 💻 courses in C++ at undergraduate and graduate programs, and science methods 🧑‍🔬 at graduate programs.

🤸 When not programming I enjoy cooking 👨‍🍳, playing the guitar 🎸, and spending time with the dog 🦮.
