About

I am researching about parallel programming, multiprocessor and multicore since 1997. My last research is a new Packt’s book, www.packtpub.com. Book’s page: http://www.packtpub.com/beginners-guide-for-C-sharp-2008-and-2005-threaded-programming/book. I’ve been working with computers since I was eight. I began programming with the legendary Texas TI-99/4A and Commodore 64 home computers in the early 80s. I have a Bachelor degree in Computer Science, graduated with honors, and an MBA (Master in Business Administration), graduated with an outstanding thesis. I have worked as developer, architect, and project manager for many companies in Buenos Aires, Argentina. I was project manager in one of the most important mortgage loan banks in Latin America for several years. Now, I am an independent IT consultant, and a freelance author. I am always researching about new technologies and writing about them. I am the author of more than 40 books in Spanish about computer science, modern hardware, programming, systems development, software architecture, business applications, balanced scorecard applications, IT project management, Internet, and electronics, published by Editorial HASA, http://www.hasa.com.ar and Grupo Noriega Editores.
