My current research interests are related to large-scale data management.
I am investigating the design of a Grid Data-Sharing Service based on a hybrid approach based on Distributed Shared Memory and Peer-to-Peer techniques.

This approach is subject to ongoing work within the GDS project of the French ACI MD and is illustrated by our JuxMem prototype.

With Luc Bougé and our American partner, Philip Hatcher (University of New Hampshire), I have initiated an associated research team abroad supported by INRIA, called Hyperion. The aim is to study the use of runtime systems for parallel and distributed computing on clusters and grids.

My PhD thesis (available in french) proposed a generic implementation platform for multithreaded consistency protocols for Software Distributed Shared Memory: DSM-PM2

Other research interests:

• Multithreading: system support for thread migration
• Data-parallel compiling
