This is the personal site of Joana Trindade. I am a graduate student at University of Illinois in the Master of Science in computer science program. Before coming to Urbana-Champaign, I received a Bachelor of Science degree also in computer science from UFRGS, in Brazil.
Since the beginning of my undergraduate studies I have been involved in several research projects. Currently I am a research assistant under Prof. Marianne Winslett and Prof Ravishankar K. Iyer. Together we're developing techniques towards more trustworthy databases and regulatory compliance at DAIS TMCS and DEPEND research groups.
My research interests lie mostly in systems and software engineering. Besides information security and secure data management, I'm interested in dynamic distributed systems, fault-tolerant networks and systems, and in security aspects of software architectures.
