Research
My focus is on Energy Efficiency in ICT and with ICT.
I mainly focuses on HPC and large scale infrastructures (clusters,
grids, clouds).

Projects
CoolEmAll (2011-2014) FP7 European project
CoolEmAll will provide means for a deep insight into the total energy consumption of data centres. To this end, the project will provide advanced planning and optimization tools for modular data centre environments. Once developed, these tools should help to minimize the energy consumption, and consequently the CO2 emissions of the IT infrastructure with related facilities.
SOP: think global Services for persOnal comPuter (2011-2014)
The objective of this ANR project is to build a hybrid working model for consumers and professional computing, that takes benefit from a mix between local installation/management and remote access to software and services located in distant dedicated datacenters or even in other non-used consumers’ machines
EcoToul (2012-2013)
This projects aims at providing information concerning mobility in Toulouse. Data from thousands of smartphones users from several means of transportation (foot, bicycle, cars, public transports,...) will be merged in a global information systems. This data will be used to compute a transportation status map of Toulouse. This map will be used to give time of transit of several means of transportation to users.
COST IC-0804: Energy efficiency in
large scale distributed systems (2009-2013)
The main objective of the Action is to foster original research
initiatives addressing energy awareness/saving and to increase the
overall impact of European research in the field of energy efficiency
in distributed systems.
The goal of the Action is to give coherence to the European research
agenda in the field, by promoting coordination and encouraging
discussions among the individual research groups, sharing of
operational know-how (lessons-learned, problems found during practical
energy measurements and estimates, ideas for real-world exploitation of
energy aware techniques, etc.)
ANR-JST
FP3C (Framework and Programming for Post Petascale Computing) :
French-Japanese Project on Petaflop applications (2010-2013)
The goal of the project is to address the development of runtime
systems for scientific applications running on petaflopic machines. Our
contribution resides in the analysis of the energy consumption and
leverages existing on such machines to handle their electricity
hungriness.
Finished projects
PIREGRID: A Pyrenean Operational Grid
(2009-2012)
PireGrid is an INTERREG IV A project which have two main objectives:
- Deployment of a production Grid Computing infrastructure in the
regions of Aragon, Aquitaine and Midi-Pyrénées.
- To achieve successful cases in execution of applications
from small and medium size companies of these regions, in order to
demonstrate its usage of these emerging technologies to the companies.
