  • Active as general chair, track chair or as scientific committee member for various reference conferences and technical workgroups within my area of expertise (IEEE CloudCom, CloudNet, IPDPS, EuroPar, Big Data Congress, Optim, PCGrid, ICPADS, HPCS, CLUS, J. Supercomputing, J. of Parallel and Distributed Computing etc.).
  • Involved in several technical workgroups (Grid5000, national ICT standardization delegate within ISO/TC 307: Blockchain and distributed ledger technologies etc.) and act as Principal Investigator or as Work Package leader in various national or EU projects.
  • Recipient of a full Autorisation à Diriger des Recherches (ADR).
  • Involved in the supervision of several graduate students at all levels (postdocs, PhD., master and bachelor)  
  • Concrete contributions in several strategic projects linked to HPC and Big Data (BD) developed with multiple key decision makers in the Luxembourg context, either from the private sector or at the governmental level

    • Title : Security in Large Scale Distributed Systems: Authentication and Result Checking.
  • Master's degree in Computer Science (Cryptology, Security and Information Coding) with honors (1st -- mention: TB) from Grenoble Institute of Technology and University Joseph Fourrier, 2003
  • Computer Science and Engineering Degree with honors (top 10%, mention: B) – Telecommunications Department of the Grenoble Institute of Technology, 2003

For more information, kindly refer to my personal website:  https://varrette.gforge.uni.lu/ 

Main Research Interest

  • Security and Performance Evaluation of Distributed Computing Platforms and Services (clusters, grids, HPC, clouds and P2P systems).
  • Crash/Cheating Fault tolerance in parallel computation
  • (more recently) Blockchain-based integrity protection in distributed executions

Up to now, I co-authored four books and more than nine book chapters in Computer Science. I also wrote about 80 research or popularization articles in scientific journals, or international conference proceedings.

A complete list of my publications is available in my CV or on Orbilu. You might also want to check my records on Google Scholar or DBLP.

Teaching

Below are the list of topics in which I used to be involved as lecturer: 

  • Cryptology (Bachelor and Master Level)
  • Advanced Programming (C,C++) (Bachelor)
  • Security and System Administration (Master)
  • Parallel Programming (Master)
  • Trusted Computing and Distributed Ledger Technologies (DLTs) (Master)

You may find more details on my Personal Web page.
