If you have an excellent CV and a strong
motiviation to carry on research on data centric networking and/or Internet
access measurements, submit your application to Inria doctoral and postdoctoral
program, here are the links to my proposal and where to submit: PhD, PostDoc.
I am a permanent research scientist in the Planète project-team at INRIA, Research Centre Sophia Antipolis – Méditerranée, since March 2002. I got my Electrical and Electronics engineering degree from the Lebanese University of Beirut in 1997, and my Master and Ph.D. degrees in Networking from the University of Nice - Sophia Antipolis in 1998 and 2001. My Ph.D. was done in the Mistral project-team at INRIA Sophia-Antipolis under the direction of Eitan Altman. From April 2001 to March 2002, I was with the LCA department at EPFL-Lausanne for a post-doctoral position (with a grant from Sprint Labs working in the group of Patrick Thiran), and from March to August 2004, I was a visiting faculty member at Intel Research Cambridge working in the group of Christophe Diot on traffic monitoring. My main research interests are Internet measurements and traffic analysis, content-centric and delay-tolerant networking, and performance evaluation of computer networks. I am senior member of the IEEE and member of the ACM.
· Content sharing in wireless networks. More details on this link including the code of our solution BitHoc. Visit also the web page of MobiTrade, our application for trading content in wireless networks.
· Adaptive traffic sampling. Supported by the ECODE FP7 project. Have a look at our platform MonLab for traffic emulation and NetFlow measurements.
· Network diagnosis by collaborative monitoring. Supported by the CMON ANR project. Also have a look at our tool ACQUA for the diagnosis of problems at the access.
· Scheduling and resource control in Delay Tolerant Networks. Visit here the web page of the project and download our HBSD code.
