Biography
From January 1982 to September 1987, she worked as teacher assistant at the Technical University of Catalonia (UPC). She was awarded a PhD in Applied Mathematics from UPC for a dissertation related to Qualitative Reasoning Modelization (under the direction of Prof. Núria Piera).



From 1998 to 2001, she was on the Executive Committee of LEA-SICA (European Associate Laboratory on Intelligent Systems and Advanced Control). Since 2000 to 2004, she was member of the MONET European Network of Excellence on Model-based Systems and Qualitative Reasoning.



She is the coordinator of the GREC-ESADE Research Group on Engineering Knowledge and an active member of ARCA (Qualitative Reasoning Automatization and Applications Group). She is a member of the programme committee for several international conferences and chaired the 18th Workshop on Qualitative Reasoning held in Barcelona in 2002. She serves as reviewer for several international journals.



Since October 2006 to October 2010 has been President of the Catalan Association for Artificial Intelligence (ACIA). Since October 2004, she has been editor of the ACIA Bulletin.



She is currently the principal coordinator of several projects related to the application of artificial intelligence to Business, Marketing and Finance, funded by public institutions and private organizations.



She was teacher assistant at ESADE from 1990 to 1992, and lecturer from 1993 to 2003. Since 2003 she is professor at ESADE (Universitat Ramon Llull).
