Let's be honest, it's an exaggerated title. It's my first appearance in a book. My name is in the acknowledgements along with about ten other colleagues.

If anybody wants me to sign it, I'm available :P

You can buy it at Fnac,
Arquitectura de Computadores by José Delgado and Carlos Ribeiro.

Lately I have been listening to several audiobooks from Stephen Hawking.

In one of these lectures he poses a question about free will. If there is one set of rules capable of explaining the universe, then it is possible in theory, predict the future with the data collected at the present. This implies that all of our actions could be predicted even before we thought about them.

Are we free willing beings? In his definition a free willing being is one that its future action can not be fully predicted.

If this is the case, is a trully random number generator a free willing being?

My music collection. Not a bad list :P

Since this web page has been off-line for several days, I have three new google techtalk movies to post.

WOWWWWWWW!!!!! In eight problems I only got one right.......THE OBSCURE SIDE OF JAVA!! Learn some java problems that don't execute as you expect.

In my opinion the future is embedded. Computers must leave the white square box and start interact with their surroundings. Domotics is one of those fields I see growing in future years. This google techtalk shows some of those embedded systems and their possible interaction with Second Live.
