Research Interests: Focus on distributed systems, blockchain protocols (safety, scalability), fault tolerance, and cybersecurity. Key areas include consensus mechanisms, intrusion detection, and Byzantine fault tolerance in large-scale networks. Current projects involve blockchain compression (BC4SSI), federated learning security (RADAR), and 5G radio access networks.
Publications & Projects: Over 30 publications in top venues (IEEE/ACM conferences, journals). Notable works include geometric FTM localization techniques, Bitcoin network analysis, and federated learning reputation systems. Active in grants like Beyond5G (BPI France) and ANR JCJC (BC4SSI). Holds patents for anomaly detection in distributed systems.
Teaching: Courses on blockchain, distributed systems, cybersecurity, and programming (Python, object-oriented design). Supervised 10+ PhD/Master students, including defended theses on blockchain improvement proposals and federated learning trust frameworks.
Service & Talks: Organizer of AlgoTel workshops, TPC member for SSTIC, NCA, and ICDCN. Delivered keynote speeches on blockchain scalability and fork avoidance (e.g., BART Initiative, DSN'16). Active in conference organization and review committees.
