Welcome to my very-simple-web-1.0-tired-of-social-networks home page!
Reach me at: pau.arumi [at] barcelonamedia [dot] org (Please do not use my former iua.upf.edu mail)
I'm a pre-doc researcher at Universitat Pompeu Fabra, and software developer on 3D audio at Barcelona Media, in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain.
My interests include multimedia processing, dataflow systems, agile methodologies and open source.
A brief self introduction would be incomplete without the fact that I love python, both the monty and the language; and, not hard to guess, I do like cats (except when they repeatedly bit my toes insanely early in the morning on sundays!)
Thesis
(New) I find it hard to believe but I'm finally defending my thesis next Tuesday 30th 2009. The title is: Real-time Multimedia Computing on Off-the-Shelf Operating Systems: From Timeliness Dataflow Models to Pattern Languages. Find the thesis document in this page.
Open-Source Projects
The big one
Clam, the audio framework.
Some facts:
- Recipient of the 2006 ACM multimedia open-source award
- Participant project of Google Summer of Code 2007
- Nice stats at ohloh
- More stats and logs at cia.vc
Smaller projects
- testfarm, the client-server building and testing tool (souceforge page)
- MiniCppUnit, a simple C++ xUnit testing framework.(sourceforge page)
- wiko, the Wiki Compiler. (sourceforge page)

Music
Debaser my indie-music band. Pretty inactive last years.
Sometimes I play the bass with Guillamino and Mazoni.
Here you'll find some videos of Guillamino band performing at PopArb festival.
Also co-produced/mixed some Bankrobber records:
- Guillamino's Somnis de Llop (see guillamino.com),
- El Chico con la Espina en el Costado Tú Rompió mi Corazón,
- Holland Park Things Where Easier When We Played Music!
Research
I'm currently working on a Phd thesis on multimedia data-flow systems.
