Hello! I work as a researcher at the University of Almeria. I am a member of the Supercomputing - Algorithms Group of the IT department. Please, do not hesitate to visualize my page and contact me if you need any other information. You are welcome.

Main Lines

Quantum Computing

Quantum computing uses the principles of quantum mechanics to define a new paradigm of computing that allows reaching goals that cannot be achieved by those already known algorithms or classical computing.

Microrheology

Microrheology is a technique used to measure the rheological properties of a medium, such as microviscosity, via the measurement of the trajectory of a flow tracer (a micrometre-sized particle),

Multidimensional Scaling

Multidimensional scaling (MDS) is a means of visualizing the level of similarity of individual cases of a dataset. It refers to a set of related ordination techniques used in information visualizations.
