Anthony Dugois — PhD Candidate in Computer Science

Hi there—

I am a PhD Candidate at ENS Lyon in the field of Computer Science. I work in the ROMA team at the LIP laboratory under supervision of Loris Marchal (ENS Lyon, CNRS) and Louis-Claude Canon (Univ. Franche-Comté, FEMTO-ST).

My research interests include scheduling algorithms, optimization in parallel computing and distributed storage systems.

Research

In my thesis, I study scheduling problems arising in distributed, replicated and persistent storage systems. The objective is to derive guarantees on response time and load balancing of these systems in an online context, that is to say, without any prior knowledge of the workload.

Teaching

In addition to my research activities, I work as a teaching assistant (up to 64 hours per year). Covered topics include parallel algorithms, distributed programs, logic, networks and system programming. Courses are taught in French (fr) or English (en).

Interests

In my spare time, I volunteer with the Climate Fresk to help raising public awareness of the mechanisms that are at the root of climate change.

I also enjoy experimenting with various recipes in my kitchen (who doesn't love food?) and relaxing in nature during long running sessions.
