I received an Electrical Engineering degree from Houari Boumedienne University (89), Algiers, Algeria; M.S. (90) and Ph.D. (93) degrees in Automatic and Signal Processing, both from Paris-XI University, Paris, France.
I worked at LSS-Supelec (90), Paris, France, on Sources Localization Applications for a Passive Sonar; CNET, France Telecom's center for R&D (91-95), Lannion, France, on Speech Processing (Recognition, Synthesis & Voice Transformation); Texas Instruments (95-96), Dallas, Texas, USA, on Speech Recognition and Graph Search Algorithms.
After a sabbatical period living in the US, I joined RALI, a laboratory within DIRO (Computer Science and Operational Research Department), University of Montréal, Canada. My main tasks were: The development of a tool that enables translators to create and manipulate a Bi-Text and the portability issues of the RALI's softwares between several platforms (Solaris/Linux/Win).
From July 1st 2000 to November 2007, I worked at support, DIRO, as system administrator.
I became Chief of Laboratories (IT Director) on december 2007. I manage DIRO technical support team. I am member of Graduate and Undergraduate Studies Committee since November 2004. I also teach at the same department:
