Fernando de la Prieta Pintado is Associate Professor at the University of Salamanca Department of Computer Science and Automation, where he currently is coordinating the Degree in Computer Engineering and of the Double Degree in Statistics and Computer Engineering.

Dr. De la Prieta is equally well experienced in research and teaching, as evident in his curriculum. Over the past years, he has followed a clearly defined line of research, focusing on the integration of multi-agent organisations, machine learning and advanced architectures in different fields. He applied the results in both his doctoral thesis (for which he obtained an international PhD mention and an extraordinary PhD award) and in the projects he has been involved in. He has more than 50 publications in international journals, many of which have a JCR impact factor on the Web of Science database. His H index in Google Scholar is 27. Furthermore, he has published more than 100 articles in books and in the proceedings of prestigious international conferences, around thirty of these publications have been published in conferences indexed according to the CORE ranking. He has worked on more than 90 research projects (16 of them were international and in several he has been the principal investigator). In addition, he has participated in more than 30 research contracts (Art. 83), in some of them as the principal investigator. As a result of his work, around 40 intellectual properties have been registered. He has done several stays abroad (pre- and post-doctoral) in Portugal, Japan and South Korea. He has also taken an active part in the organisation of international conferences, some of them included in the CORE ranking: IEEE-GLOBECOM (core B), ICCBR (Core B), CEDI, PAAMS (core C), ACM-SAC (core B), IEEE-FUSION (core C), and others.
