Formerly
Directeur de Recherche at CNRS (Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique), Jean-Charles FABRE is now Professor at the National Polytechnic Institute of Toulouse (INP-ENSEEIHT)
He received his PhD in Computer
Science in 1982 and the HDR (Habilitation à Diriger les Recherches) in 1992 from the University of Toulouse (France).
He was first involved in research projects on distributed computing at the THOMSON Central Research Laboratory and at INRIA in Paris. In the Chorus project at INRIA, he was responsible
for the design and the implementation of fault tolerance strategies in the
Chorus microkernel-based distributed architecture. Since 1984, as INRIA and then CNRS researcher, he has been with
the LAAS-CNRS in Toulouse working in the "Dependable Computing and
Fault-tolerance" research
group. His past and
current interests concern distributed algorithms, implementation validation by
fault-injection, fault and intrusion-tolerance in distributed systems. Today,
his activity is concerned with object-oriented development of fault and
intrusion tolerant systems and validation of COTS microkernels by
fault-injection for embedded systems. He is the main
designer of the FRIENDS system, a fault and intrusion tolerant
distributed architecture based on reflective technology. This adaptive
architecture is based on a CORBA-compliant MetaObject Protocol. He was also leading the design and the
development of MAFALDA, MAFALDA-RT, CoFFEE,
several tools for the failure modes analysis by fault-injection of both
microkernel-based real-time systems and CORBA-based systems, also
providing support for the definition of fault containment
wrappers. His is currently working on adaptive fault tolerant computing
using reflective and aspect oriented technologies, robustness of
embedded automotive applications, and on-line monitoring of
real-time properties in distributed systems This work is
currently supported by the French Ministry of Defence, Renault, and
national projects. Jean-Charles Fabre is also strongly involved in the ReSIST
European Network of Excellence first on research topics like "resilience
and evolutivity of computer systems", but is also member of the Training
and Dissemination committee whose aim is to promote education on
dependable computing in Europe.
Author or
co-author of more 70 publications
in international conference proceedings, journals and books, has been involved
in several European projects (recently DSOS and DBENCH, now ASSERT), national research networks
(presently RIS), international research projects through CNRS-NSF1 agreements (with the University of California Los Angeles in the US) and CNRS-JSPS2 agreements (with the University of Tsukuba & Tokyo in Japan),
and international cooperations (Brazil,
Singapore, Argentina). He is also teaching3 operating systems, fault tolerance
and computer security in several French Universities and abroad. He has been
and is consultant for several industrial companies in particular related to
avionics and space industry (e.g. Dassault Aviation, EADS Airbus, ESA, Astrium,
CNES, etc.). J.-C. Fabre served
in many program committees of international conferences and was PC
co-chair of DSN’2002 (Washington D.C., USA, June 2002),
the premiere International Conference on Dependable Systems and Networks sponsored by IEEE and IFIP. He was involved in the organization of the IFIP World Computer Congress 2004. Jean-Charles Fabre is member of the IEEE Computer
Society.
