I graduated from the Montefiore Institute of the University of Liège as engineer in computer science in 1992. After that, I worked during five years as a research engineer in the Research Unit in Networking headed by André Danthine I first worked on several topics including Quality of Service (QoS), multicast and management protocols in the framework of EC-sponsored research projects. After that my work has
been mostly focused on the study of the performance of TCP/IP in ATM networks. I left the University of Liège to become a researcher at the Alcatel Alsthom Corporate Research Center in Antwerp where I continued to work on TCP/IP over ATM. The results of my research work have been published in international journals and conferences. My work on TCP/IP over ATM is the basis of my Ph.D. thesis, entitled " Integration of ATM under TCP/IP to provide services with minimum guaranteed bandwidth".

I was at the Facultés Universitaires Notre-Dame de la Paix of Namur in 1998-2002 where I was responsible for the networking research group. I am now Professor at UCL where I lead the network research group. I received a prize from the Wernaers fund managed by the Belgian National Fund for Scientific Research (FNRS) for the development of http://enligne.info.fundp.ac.be and the Alcatel Bell prize in 2001. I'm on the editorial board of IEEE Network Magazine and IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking and TPC co-chair of SIGCOMM's CoNEXT2007 with Roch Guérin.

I currently teach the following courses :

• FSAB1401 : Computer Science 1 with Prof. Charles Pecheur (in French)
• INGI1113 : Operating Systems (in French)
• INGI2141 : Computer Networks (part 1, in English)
• INGI2142 : Computer Networks (part 2, in French)
• INGI2349 : Networking and security seminar
