About
Mathieu BACOU is a Lecturer at Telecom SudParis, affiliated with the SAMOVAR research laboratory. His work focuses on cloud computing, distributed systems, and performance optimization, with particular emphasis on virtualization, data center management, and computer architecture challenges. He holds a PhD from the National Polytechnic Institute of Toulouse, where his thesis addressed resource management in multi-virtualized cloud environments.
Education:
- PhD in Networks and Telecommunications, National Polytechnic Institute of Toulouse (2020)
Research Interests: BACOU explores scalable systems, including function-as-a-service (FaaS), nested virtualization, and energy-efficient data center designs. Recent work addresses memory architecture limitations (e.g., 128-bit addressing) and containerization transparency. His projects often involve collaboration with industry partners to bridge academic research and practical deployment.
Key Contributions: His work on Drowsy-DC introduced smartphone-inspired power management for data centers, while OFC caching systems improved FaaS efficiency. Recent papers like FaaSLoad and 128-bit address extensions highlight his focus on future computing challenges.
Labs & Affiliations: Active member of SAMOVAR lab, Telecom SudParis, and collaborator with RISC-V Summit and EUROSYS conferences. Engaged in experimental practices bridging systems research and real-world infrastructure.
