I am happy to share that I successfully defended my Ph.D. thesis, “Understanding Linux Kernel Scheduling Bottlenecks,” on June 3, 2026, at Inria Rennes. This defense marks the end of an intense and rewarding research journey conducted at Inria Rennes, IRISA, and the University of Rennes. My thesis provides a comprehensive study of limitations in Linux kernel scheduling mechanisms and asynchronous execution APIs, and analyzes their impact on the performance of multithreaded applications and the energy efficiency of Intel heterogeneous CPUs. ...

Exciting News: Presenting at Systor 2025 I’m thrilled to announce that I’ll be presenting my work at the Systor 2025 virtual event! This is a fantastic opportunity to share my research with the systems community and connect with fellow researchers and practitioners. Paper Details I’ll be presenting our paper “The Impact of Kernel Asynchronous APIs on the Performance of a Kernel VPN” co-authored with Djob Mvondo, Julia Lawall, and Yerom-David Bromberg. The paper will be published in the Proceedings of the 18th ACM International Systems and Storage Conference (SYSTOR ‘25), 2025. ...

A Great Week in Toulouse I had the opportunity to visit Pr. Daniel HAGIMONT at ENSHEEIT (Toulouse, France) this week as part of my PhD research collaboration. The visit was incredibly productive and gave me valuable insights into their ongoing projects. Research Discussions The team at ENSHEIT welcomed me warmly and we had several fruitful discussions about: Advanced process optimization techniques Data analysis methodologies Potential collaboration opportunities for my thesis work Highlights of the Visit Laboratory Tours: Got to see their state-of-the-art equipment and experimental setups Networking: Met several PhD students and faculty members working in related fields Next Steps We’ve agreed to maintain regular contact and explore joint publication opportunities. I’m excited about the potential for future collaboration and the new perspectives this visit has given me on my own research. ...

I’m excited to share that I’ll be attending the EuroSYS 2024 Doctoral Workshop! This is a fantastic opportunity to present my research, get feedback from experts in the field, and connect with fellow PhD students working on systems research. The workshop provides a supportive environment for doctoral students to discuss their work-in-progress, receive constructive criticism, and explore new research directions. I’m looking forward to the discussions and networking opportunities that come with this prestigious event. ...

I’m excited to announce that I’m starting my PhD journey! This marks a significant milestone in my academic career and I wanted to share some thoughts about this new chapter. What I’ll be studying I’ll be pursuing my doctorate in Operating Systems and Networks at University of Rennes in France, under the supervision of prof. David Bromberg, Dr. Julia Lawall and Dr. Djob Mvondo. My research will focus on understanding Linux kernel scheduling bottlenecks. ...
