Jose M. Chaves-González was born in Cáceres (Spain) in 1982. He received his M.S. degree in Computer Engineering from the University of Extremadura, Spain, in 2005, and the Ph.D. degree in Computer Science from the same university in 2011.
Jose M. worked as Acting Professor at Extremadura University for 2 years and he has participated in several research projects during the last years. He has worked in different research fields (face recognition, development of simulators for teaching aid, design of heuristics and metaheuristics for the resolution of complex optimization problems, frequency assignment problem in mobile telecommunication networks, semantics, DNA computing...). Dr. Chaves-Gonzalez is author of more than 40 scientific publications, including book chapters, peer-reviewed conference proceedings and several JCR journal papers. Moreover, he works as a reviewer for several international impact factor (JCR) journals, and he has been member of the program committee in different international conferences.
His current research interests are directly related to evolutionary and bioinspired algorithms, multiobjective optimization, parallel computing and their application to NP-hard problems.
