Short Bio

      Frédéric Desprez is a director of research at INRIA and holds a position at LIP laboratory (ENS Lyon, France). He received is PhD in C.S. from the Institut National Polytechnique de Grenoble in 1994 and his MS in C.S. from the ENS Lyon in 1990.

      My research interests include parallel algorithms, scheduling for large scale distributed platforms, large scale data management, over Clusters, Grids and Clouds platforms.
