Since September 2007, I'm research director at
INRIA Lille leading the
RMoD Team. During 10 years, I co-directed with Oscar Nierstrasz the
Software Composition Group. I'm the president of
ESUG. I co-founded
Synectique, a company that offers specific tools for Software analysis. I'm one of the leader of
Pharo: a new exciting dynamic language. Here is a short
CV.

My research statement is double: (1) How can we help companies to support the evolution and maintenance of their large applications and (2) how can we improve languages to better support evolution?
I'm interested in all the aspects of software evolution and maintenance of large systems. I consulted for companies. Do not hesitate to contact me. I'm interested in your problems.
I'm interested in revisiting foundational bricks of object-oriented languages such as encapsulation, reuse, message passing. Now I start to work on isolation and security in reflective object-oriented languages.
Here are some of the international conferences I was PC member. We are starting a company and I decline more often committee participation. I declined for ICSE 2013, ECOOP 2013, ECOOP 2014, ECOOP 2015 (but I will be the workshop chair), PLDI 2007 and OOPSLA 2006.
