Gwendal Simon received his Master Degree in Computer Science in 2000 and his PhD degree in Computer Science in December 2004 after three years at both France Telecom R&D and IRISA. During his PhD, he has conceived and developed a distributed shared virtual world, which has received a worldwide attention, including innovation prize, and has turned out to be a start-up.
From 2004 to 2006 he was a researcher at Orange Labs, where he worked on spontaneous networks and social media innovations. Since 2006, he has been Associate Professor at Telecom Bretagne, a graduate engineering school within the Institut Telecom. He is visiting researcher at University of Waterloo since September 2011.
His research interests include large-scale distributed networks, peer-to-peer and ad-hoc networks, optimization problems and video delivery systems.
