Presentation
I am an assistant professor in Computer Science at the School of Computer and Cyber Sciences, at the Augusta University, in Georgia, USA. I am also a member of the ForML Lab, a member of the Graduate School, the Campus Champion of Affordable Learning Georgia, and a mentor for the African American Male Initiative.
Prior to that, I have been a post-doctoral researcher at the Appalachian State University (Boone, NC, USA), at the LACL (Créteil, Val-de-Marne, France), at the I2M (Marseille, Bouches-du-Rhône, France), and a PhD student at the LIPN (Villetaneuse, Île-de-France, France).
Please refer to my resume for a more complete presentation, and find below information about my teaching, my research, internships and projects, as well as miscellaneous factoids and how to contact me.
Teaching
Currently (Summer 2022)
This semester, I am teaching the following class:
- CURS 4990 - Undergrad Research III
- CSCI 8940 - Dissertation Research
Students can have a look at my "Quick Reflexion on Course Evaluations", which includes my previous evaluations, to be better prepared for the classes I teach and know what to expect.
Notes
- CSCI 1301 - Principles of Computer Programming I, which is a mirror of the version hosted on github.
- CSCI 3410 - Database Systems Lecture Notes (Draft)
- Study Guide - A Definitive Guide
- A very short introduction to C
- A very short introduction to Java
- A Quick Reflexion on Course Evaluations
- How to read programming characters

Before Coming to Augusta University
- Fall 2016 - CS 1440 - Computer Science I, at Appstate
- Between 2010 and 2015, I taught various courses in France: please refer to a presentation of my teaching activities or my (French) webpage for more information.
Research
I work in the vast field of computational logic, which uses mathematical reasoning to discover and explain the mechanisms of computation.
You might want to have a look at (in decreasing order of preference)
- an open directory of my publications at dissemin,
- self-archived research works at HAL and arXiv,
- my publication list, also hosted (and more complete) at dblp, or NIH's Library,
- my reviewer profile at MathSciNet or at zbMATH,
- my orcid.org profile,
- my google scholar profile,
- my ResearchGate profile (but, please, do not use it, and refer to this post as to why you should refrain from using it),
- my Pure profile.
If I were to use keywords, it would probably be
Using 2020 Mathematics Subject Classification
- 03D15 Complexity of computation (including implicit computational complexity)
- 03F52 Proof-theoretic aspects of linear logic and other substructural logics
- 68N18 Functional programming and lambda calculus
- 68Q85 Models and methods for concurrent and distributed computing (process algebras, bisimulation, transition nets, etc.)
- 18C50 Categorical semantics of formal languages

Internships and Projects
Please, contact me if you are interrested in an internship with me. Some examples of internship (past and prospective) proposals can be found below.
In the past, I have had the pleasure of working with (in no particular order) Bryana Vinson, Bobby Mcmanus, Minh Nguyen, Poonam Veeral, Cystal Anderson, Tim Cuny, John Natale, Assya Sellak and Hunter Wilkins, and I currently work with Mark Holcomb and Neea Rusch.
Current Projects
I am mostly working on the StATyCC project with Neea Rusch lately.
I am also involved in the project led with Drs. Andrew Balas and Tiffany Townsend, Practices of outstanding productivity in biomedical research.
I am also investigating with Mark Holcomb connections between multi-head automata and their relations to complexity theory, and implementing concurrent and reversible process algebras with Peter Browning.

Miscellaneous
Letterhead for the School
I wrote a letterhead for the Augusta University using XeTeX and pandoc: Download, Preview. It respects the brand strategy of the University and was approved by Augusta University's graphic designers.
The official docx template can be found at brand.augusta.edu/electronic-letterhead.
Traveling with Augusta University
I wrote a small guide to discuss how traveling is handled at Augusta University.
Reviewing Research Papers
I keep some notes to share some resources for first-time reviewers.
