Computer science professor at the Université de Versailles St-Quentin-en-Yvelines teaching operating systems design, compiler construction, and floating-point error analysis. I also co-coordinate the first year of Université Paris Saclay master degree in High Performance Computing and Simulation.
I participate in Écopolien, a political ecology group, that brings together researchers and teachers concerned by the climate crisis.
Research
My research topics include computer arithmetic, performance and energy characterization and optimization, and parallel languages for high performance computing.
