Active projects
This SNF-funded project aims at designing and implementing a collaborative content
management engine for peer-to-peer communities, such as the
bioinformatics community, whose enormous volume of data makes it
impossible to store everything in one single place and for which fast
data access often supersedes data consistency. This project is a joint
effort between Université de Lausanne and Università della Svizzera Italiana.

This ongoing internal project aims at building programming abstractions
that facilitate the design & implementation of distributed
applications that require various kinds of remote interactions, e.g.,
client/server, peer-to-peer, transaction-based, etc.

This SNF-funded project aims at devising adaptable protocol-oriented abstractions for
building emerging distributed systems, i.e., systems that have to cope
with extreme mobility and ubiquity requirements, and with network
eccentric communication models. (More details)
Prior Seminal Project
Prior Seminal Projects
This project resulted in a framework facilitating the design of
flexible distributed software, with a strong emphasis on reliability,
by promoting protocols as basic structuring abstractions. The Bast
project was carried out at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (EPFL) between 1996 and 1998. (More details)
This project resulted in a complete environment that automatically
transformed a centralized application into a distributed and
fault-tolerant one, using a reflective architecture. The GARF project
was carried out at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (EPFL) between 1993 and 1996. (More details)
