Research area: formal methods for communicating embedded systems

I am working on architectures and formal methods for communicating embedded systems: from theoretical studies on models (mainly network calculus) to network themselves (AFDX and TSN mainly)

I also sometime contributes to Wikipedia when I am too upset by what is written.


Open PhD positions

There are two open PhD positions.


Teaching

I teach mainly protocol engineering (specification, V cycle, SDL) in the Telecommunications and Networks department at ENSEEIHT.

I also teach embedded networks at EUROSAE and Junia/HEI: MIL-STD-1553, ARINC 429/DITS, CAN, ARINC 825, TTP, ARINC 664/AFDX, TTEthernet, SpaceWire, FlexRay...
I also have done some TSN-specific courses: a TSN overview done in the EDEN projet of the IRT St Exupery and Analysing TSN within network calculus framework at the french real-time summer school Ecole d'été Temps Réel, #ETR2021

Tools and code

NC-maude

NC-maude have been developped to allow to play with Network Calculus. Current version is 1.9.5. You will need the Maude tool to use it.

You can have a look here to get my feedback on the use of rewriting language in this project.


C++ Code : CheckedNumeric

CheckedNumeric<T> is a C++ class that behaves like a numerical type, but with a checking of overflow and underflow, and throwing of an exception when the results is out of bounds.
Code example:

CheckedNumeric<unsigned int> x,y;
x=y=0;
x++;
cout<<++x;  // Outputs 2
x=y-1;      // Throw a CheckedNumeric<unsigned int>::numeric_overflow exception
	

You can download the sources.


C Code : The Basic Preprocessed Library

The Basic Preprocessed Library: this is an attempt of having a set of container and algorithms (like the STL in C++) type-safe and efficient in C, using the preprocessor.
You can browse the documentation: a short user manual and developper manual, and download the sources.
Any feedbacks are welcome!

  • RHDM02: Modélisation d'architectures multimédias
    Transparents présentés lors de l'école d'été Réseaux Haut-Débits et Multimédia (RHDM02). Cette présentation fait le point, en 2002, des problèmes de modélisation d'application multimédia, et présente une piste de solution. Cela correspond au dernier chapitre de ma thèse (Slides).
  • Phd Thesis (2001)
    As the thesis itself is written in french, its presentation also is.

    J'ai soutenu ma thèse (le 2 juillet 2001). Vous pouvez télécharger le résumé, ou le texte complet. -- Slides
