Hi! My name is Etienne and I am a lecturer (Maître-Assistant) in the Computer Science department of the University of Neuchâtel. I teach large-scale distributed systems and operating systems, and do research in the dependable and distributed computing group. My research interests are in analyzing, building and evaluating computer systems, with a focus on scalability, performance, dependability, and security.
