Short Bio:
I am a Professor of Computer Science at Joseph Fourier University, Grenoble. I am Director of the LIG (Laboratoire d'Informatique de Grenoble).
My research areas are multimedia databases and spatial information systems. In particular, I work on the following topics: context-aware access
to multimedia documents, geolocation and privacy, trajectories modelling. I am involved in several projects related to geomatics.
I received my PhD from the University of Grenoble in 1991and a Habilitation diploma in 2000. Since 2009, I am associate professor
at University Laval, Quebec. From 2009 to 2010, I was President of French Society for Education and Research in computer science (SPECIF).
The main part of my publication references is available on Steamer research group website or
on DBLP website.
I am member of the editorial board of the international journal Multimedia Tools and Applications (MTAP) and of the Journal of Geographic Information System (JGIS).

Research: The
research conducted by the group STEAMER, at LIG Lab focuses on Web-based,
spatial and temporal information systems, and more specifically, on processing spatial-temporal
multimedia. Our objective is to propose formalisms and methods permitting
progression in the conceptualization, implementation and utilization of
spatial-temporal multimedia information systems. These systems are intended to
be deployed in heterogeneous and mobile environments. We approach these
problems according to the concept of adaptation.
Our objective is to take into account the diversity of users
(in terms of their needs, priorities, levels of understanding, etc.) and
contexts of use (work stations, mobile phones, fixed or variable location, Web)
to offer a service or information adapted in terms of contents and
presentation. Our research is realized through the conceptualization and
development of platforms and frameworks based on the possibilities of
object-oriented knowledge systems and structured or semi-structured formalisms
(ontologies, objects), as well as Web technology
(XML, Web services). The application of our research takes place in the domain
of Geographic Information Systems (interactive cartography, spatial analysis,
mobile GIS, location-based services) and natural risks.
My teaching activities mainly concerns Database systems and Spatial Information Systems. Given classes are:
