Research Activities

 Topics

My research activities are related to Adaptive Information Access & Retrieval.
Three main axis could be highlighted:
  • Studies on user activities related to information: i.e. annotations, social information-based activities, Web 2.0...,
  • User, task and context modelling for information access and retrieval,
  • Interfaces for information retrieval systems.
Our results have been integrated in information access and retrieval systems (search engines, recommender systems...) that correspond to fully functionnal prototypes (Easy-DOR, SiSSI, Taffanote…).

In order to improve our results, we are working with experts from peripheral topics like cognitive science for user modelling.

Associate professor since 2003 at the Université de Toulouse, Toulouse III ; more precisely at IUT Informatique Rangueil (Computer science department).

The main topics of my courses are "Algorithm & Programming".

I am responsible for:
  • projects for students (since september 2009)
  • "Software architecture" courses for L3 professional Licence
  • Java programming courses for L3 prof. and PST3
  • Internet programming course for L1 (S2)

I am the coordinator of Information System courses for IUP Management de l'Entreprise Réseau (MER) from L3 to M2.

I am also teaching:
  • Knowledge support and System interoperability (M2 IUP MER)
  • Java Programming and Database systems (IUP ISI L3 & M1)
  • XML and today Enterprise (IUP IGSI M2)
  • Web Information Retrieval (M2R-MITT/RIBD - RIBD6)
  • ...

I am also co-author of a publication in Techniques de l’Ingénieur" related to System interoperability and XML (H6008)

I am a member of the "Conseil de perfectionnement" for the IUT A Computer science department and for IUP MER

Misc.

I was the communication assistant of the ARIA association between 2004 and 2007. Since 2007 I am financial manager of ARIA.

I am one of the system administrator of SIG computers since 2004 (more than 20 PC with domain and application server).
