CNRS Research Engineer

About Me

I am a CNRS research engineer in the SAFER research team at LIPN, Université Sorbonne Paris Nord. I lead the laboratory's software development team and serve as Chargé de mission « Logiciels » for CNRS Sciences informatiques. I am also in charge of the Object-Oriented Programming and Software Engineering courses for apprentices in the Computer Science engineering program at Sup Galilée.

Research Interests
  • Formal specification and verification of concurrent systems
  • Interactive multimedia systems

Software

I design, develop, and maintain open-source research software. Below are the tools I am actively maintaining, followed by past contributions. The complete list is available on GitLab and GitHub.

Actively maintaining

Tool to translate attack-defence trees (ADTrees) into asynchronous multi-agent systems (AMAS) and compute optimal agent scheduling for securityscenarios.

  • C++

Extensible web platform for modelling and analysing systems across multiple coexisting formalisms (Petri nets, automata, attack-defence trees).

  • Docker
  • TypeScript
  • Java

Parametric timed model checker that synthesizes the timing-parameter valuations for which a real-time system satisfies its correctness specification.

  • OCaml
  • Docker
Docker-Sponsored OSS

Participatory sound map of the world's languages, collecting transcribed and translated speaker recordings to preserve linguistic diversity for research.

  • TypeScript
  • Python
  • Docker
Fête de la Science 2026

Morphological lexical resource for French that automatically generates and identifies every inflected form of a word for Natural Language Processing tasks.

  • Docker
  • TypeScript
Best Demo Award at EGC 2026

Model-based testing tool that derives observable test paths from a Petri net model via its SOG (a compact abstraction of the state space).

  • C++

Web platform that verifies Solidity smart contracts through Coloured Petri Nets and model checking, supporting vulnerability detection.

  • Docker
  • TypeScript
  • C++

Past contributions


Projects

I have been the principal investigator of the following projects:

PISTACHE
