Postdoc in (Sustainable) Software Engineering

Delft University of Technology

I am currently a Postdoc in Software Engineering @Delft University of Technology, in the SERG research group. I am curious about Green Software, Scientific Computing, and AI, and I am exploring how to apply Approximate Computing for sustainable (scientific) SE. Looking at the Sustainability in Software Engineering, I aim to build more sustainable (scientific) (software) systems, as well as (Data-Centric) Green AI.

Research

I am currently a Postdoc in Software Engineering @Delft University of Technology, in the SERG research team, under the mentorship of Luís Cruz. I am looking at Sustainability in Software Engineering, and more specifically at how to apply Approximate Computing to build more sustainable/greener (AI-based)(software) systems.

I did my PhD in Software Engineering at the University of Rennes 1. My doctorate was part of a collaboration between the IRISA and OSUR laboratories and reflected the desire to bring software engineering closer to the scientific field of hydrogeology. Thus, I participated in the research activities of the DiverSE and DIMENV@risce teams.

My work dealt with modelling for decision making and flood risk assessment (w.r.t climate change). I applied approximate computing techniques to scientific models in order to make the exploration of simulation and prediction results accessible to decision makers. In my journey to achieve that goal, I received valuable advice from my supervisors Johann Bourcier, Jean-Raynald de Dreuzy and Benoit Combemale.

Overall, my research work mainly focuses on Software Engineering and Sustainability. I am interested in how to apply Approximate Computing to reach more Sustainability in and thanks to Software Engineering.
