Professional Activities & Bio

I work at Technicolor Research on distributed storage systems. My research interests include large-scale distributed algorithms and applications. I graduated in 2005 from University of Bordeaux (learning distributed systems, networks & parallelism). I got a PhD in Computer Science from the University of Rennes 1 (ASAP team, Anne-Marie Kermarrec), working in Orange Labs in Lannion, on distributed techniques to monitor large-scale P2P networks. I have been a post-doc researcher at IRISA from 2007 to 2009, working on P2P VoD and topology analysis. I then visited University of Nevada, Las Vegas, for a collaboration on P2P overlay management (with Prof. Ajoy K. Datta), before joining Technicolor in Rennes at the end of 2009.

I was a PC member of SSS 2010, CoNEXT'08 student workshop and reviewed papers for ACM TPDS, SIAM and Elsevier COMCOM journals, and was a referee for PODC'09, P2P'08 and OPODIS'08.
