Colloquium du Loria : Jean-Yves Le Boudec
3 septembre 2024
Le prochain colloquium du Loria aura lieu le jeudi 17 octobre à 13 h 30 dans l’amphithéâtre.
Nous aurons le plaisir d’accueillir Jean-Yves Le Boudec, professeur honoraire à l’EPFL et membre IEEE, pour un exposé en anglais intitulé “Time Sensitive Networks, Network Calculus and Clock Non-idealities“.
Abstract: Time Sensitive Networks offer guarantees on worst-case delay, worst-case delay variation and zero congestion loss. They find applications in many areas such as factory automation, embedded and vehicular networks, audio-visual studio networks, and in the front-hauls of cellular wireless networks. In this talk we will describe how network calculus can be used to analyze time sensitive networks. We will also explain why clock nonidealities matter and how to take them into account.
Bio: Jean-Yves Le Boudec is honorary professor at EPFL and fellow of the IEEE. He graduated from Ecole Normale Supérieure de Saint-Cloud, Paris, where he obtained the Agrégation in Mathematics with rank 4 in 1980 and received his doctorate in 1984 from the University of Rennes, France. From 1984 to 1987 he was with INSA/IRISA, Rennes. In 1987 he joined Bell Northern Research, Ottawa, Canada, as a member of scientific staff in the Network and Product Traffic Design Department. In 1988, he joined the IBM Zurich Research Laboratory where he was manager of the Customer Premises Network Department. He became full professor at EPFL in 1997 and honorary professor in 2023. His interests are in the performance and architecture of communication systems and smart grids. He co-authored a book on network calculus, which serves as a foundation for deterministic networking, an introductory textbook on Information Sciences, and is the author of the book “Performance Evaluation”. He received numerous awards, among which the IEEE millenium medal, the Infocom Best Paper award, the ACM Sigmetrics Best Paper award, the ACM Conext Best Paper Award, the IEEE Communication Society William R. Bennett Prize, the IEEE Security and Privacy Test-of-Time award and the EPFL I&C Best Teacher Award.
