Current position

• Professor at ISTIC, University of Rennes 1.
• Member of the CAIRN research group at IRISA/INRIA.

Research Interest

My research interests revolve around  design tools and technique for complex hardware/software systems. This includes (among others) compiler optimizations for High-Level-Synthesis, automatic parallelisation using polyhedral compilation techniques and hardware assisted Dynamic Binary Translation.

Teaching

• UE PFO : Principles of Computer Design

Publications

See my DBLP entry.

Past research Projects

• FP7 ALMA project (2011-2015)
• H2020 ARGO project (2016-2019)

Software tools

Research related

• The Hybrid Dynamic Translation framework  : Hybrid-DBT is a hardware acceletared Dynamic Binary Translation Framework operating from RISC-V binaries and targeting customisable VLIW, as do Transmeta and Denver NVIDIA CPUs.
• The Gecos Source to Source compiler infrastructure  : Gecos is a C source-to-source compiler framework developped in Java/EMF which we use in our High Level Synthesis research activities.

Teaching related

• Logisim-evolution with FSM : this is a fork from logisim evolution with an additional extension for capturing/editing/simulating FSM we use for teaching purposes.
• ScanExam is a grading assistant open-source software for digitized exams, sharing similarities with tools such as gradescope
