Research interests

Large-scale distributed systems
Peer-to-Peer (P2P)
Fault Tolerance, replication, group membership

Middleware for Grid Computing
Data management in grids

Current research activities

I do my research activities in the REGAL research group at LIP6.
The main axes are :

The study of data mobility in P2P systems (for distributed virtual worlds). I lead a LIP6 project arround this axis.
The study of churn effect in P2P DHTs within the SPREADS project.

Previous research activities

Post-doctoral position at university of Calabria funded by the CoreGRID network of excellence, working on meta-data management within the Knowledge Grid platform.
I've done my PhD thesis in the Paris team at IRISA. The document is available here.

Main collaborations

ANR SPREADS. The SPREADS project goal is to study issues concerning peer-to-peer data storage. A 3-year project started in 2007, participant.
CoreGRID network of excellence. I am on a postdoctoral position at university of Calabria, under the supervision of Prof. Domenico Talia. I made a short visit at TU Delft, visiting Prof. Dick Epema.
URBANA - CNRS-INRIA-UIUC Cooperation. Collaboration with Indranil Gupta (Assistant Professor) Department of Computer Science University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.
ACI MD "GDS" (for Grid Data Service).

Short Biography

Sébastien Monnet, assistant professor - University of Pierre and Marie Curie (Paris - France).

He's done a postdoc at University of Calabria on resource management for knowledge discovery applications running on grids within the Grid Computing Lab, under the supervision of Domenico Talia. He was a PhD student in the PARIS project-team at IRISA (Rennes, France), under the supervision of Luc Bougé and Gabriel Antoniu, and a part-time assistant teacher (MES, Moniteur de l'Enseignement Supérieur) at IFSIC, University of Rennes 1.

PhD subject : Large-scale data management in computing grids: support for fault tolerance and data consistency.

He obtained his Master degree in 2003 (operating systems, distributed computing, computer architecture) at IFSIC, University of Rennes 1.

He graduated in Computer Science in 2002 at University Blaise Pascal located in Clermont-Ferrand, France.
