Diogo Vaz has a BSc (2019) and a MSc (2021) in Computer Science and Engineering by Instituto Superior Técnico (IST), Universidade de Lisboa, Portugal. He is currently a Ph.D. student and Teaching Assistant at IST and a junior researcher on the Distributed, Parallel, and Secure Systems (DPSS) at INESC-ID Lisboa.

His research interests are in the application of Artificial Intelligence to study problems on the Cybersecurity and Distributed Systems fields. Currently, he is studying the application of machine learning techniques on the generation of fault-tolerant algorithms.




Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing the world, from its applications in the advance of science to its use in our daily routines. Therefore, the question about the application of AI to the distributed and secure computing fields is no longer a question of "if", but a question of "when". Our research is trying to bring that "when" to the present. You can follow our work at
