"Engineering is done with numbers. Analysis without numbers is only an opinion." (first Akin's Law of Spacecraft Design)

Be welcome to my homepage. My name is Alexandre Trilla. I shall suspect that if you, dear visitor, have come across this page is because you are, to some extent, interested in engineering and/or FLOSS stuff. If I am right, then again be welcome. I hope the information in here is worth to browse. Please use a standards-compliant Internet browser to read this homepage. Websites will be most grateful. This one is XHTML Valid and CSS Valid.

About me

My credentials state that I received the B.Sc. Degree in Telecommunications Engineering specializing in Electronic Systems at La Salle Engineering University, Barcelona, the M.Sc. Degree in Telecommunications Engineering at the same university and I am currently working at the Media Technologies Department pursuing the Ph.D. Degree at La Salle too. You may check my Linked-in profile.

About the homepage

"It's not what we know. It's what we do with what we know.". That's my motivation for spending my time with this site. I believe it helps me organizing my resources. And I choose to share my doings because to my mind knowledge must have no frontiers. I learn a lot from other people's articles and comments on the Internet, it's awesome. I feel I am indebted with all these people, it's fair that I do the same.

This homepage is based on Jacwiki, authored in Vim and powered by a Debian server. I am keen on swift and agile code, compliant with the KISS philosophy. I maintain this site almost image free in favour of browsing speed. In order to get it I had some fun hacking Jacwiki, it is not a wiki anymore, by removing the web page edition (this server's PHP release cannot handle reCAPTCHA) and coding the blog and the dynamic contents box. Then I gave it a nice minimalist look-and-feel tweaking the Primitive CSS offered at Free CSS Templates and finally I obtained this Wonder of the World ;)
