Alberto Ochoa Ortiz-Zezzatti has been a member of the faculty at University of Ciudad Juárez, Mexico since 1995. He has conducted lectures on Artificial Intelligence in undergraduate and graduate programs, and has coordinated and participated in projects funded by the European Union and Brazil, addressing topics on Smart Cities. Currently, he is engaged in a project related to forest fires until 2027. He has mentored 67 PhD students, and since 2020 he has the profile Prodep for six years and the endorsement of National System of Scientists in Mexico level 2. He has been cited around a thousand times, and has received one of the highest RG scores at his university. Genoveva Vargas-Solar (http://www.vargas-solar.com) is senior scientist at the French Council of Scientific Research (CNRS) in the Laboratory of Informatics on Images and Information Systems (LIRIS). She has been the deputy director the Franco-Mexican Laboratory of Informatics and Automatic Control (LAFMIA) an international research unit established at CINVESTAV since 2008. She is regular member of the Mexican Academia of Computing. In 2014 she obtained her Habilitation à Diriger des Recherches (HDR - tenure) from University of Grenoble, France and a PhD degree in Computer Science from the University Joseph Fourier, France (2000) and a PhD in Literature from Stendhal University, France (2005). In 1997 she obtained her first master’s degree in computer science at University Joseph Fourier and in 1998 she obtained her second master’s degree in Compared Literature at Stendhal University. She did her undergraduate studies on Computer Systems Engineering at Universidad de las Américas in Puebla, Mexico. Her research interests in Computer Science lies in distributed and heterogeneous databases, reflexive systems and service-based database systems. She conducts fundamental and applied research activities for addressing challenges of different architectures ARM, raspberry, cluster, cloud, and HPC. She has coordinated several research projects in Europe and Latin America financed by governments and industrial partners. She actively promotes the scientific cooperation in Computer Science between Latin America and Europe particularly between France and Mexico. Javier A. Espinosa Oviedo is a computer scientist specializing in the domains of databases and distributed systems. He currently works as postdoctoral researcher at the University of Lyon, France and is also an associate researcher of the French-Mexican Laboratory of Informatics and Automatic Control (UMI CNRS LAFMIA). Before this, he held research positions at the Delft University of Technology, the Barcelona Supercomputing Centre, and the Grenoble Informatics Laboratory. His current research interests are in big data, data-centric systems and cloud computing. He obtained his PhD in Computer Science from the University of Grenoble in 2013, and his master and bachelor’s degree in Computer Science and Computer Systems Engineering, from UDLAP, in Mexico, in 2006 and 2008, respectively. He is fellow of the Mexican Academy of Computer Science (AMEXCOMP) and member of the Mexican National System of Researchers (SNI).
