Data Science, Digital Security, Communication Systems: EURECOM's three key research areasIn its quest for excellence, EURECOM strives to identify the emerging topics to guide its pioneering research and to continue innovating. EURECOM's research departments were restructured at the beginning of the year to increase our level of response to the challenges of the digital economy and the changes in our society. Our ambition is to bring together teams boasting strong critical mass in key promising and buoyant scientific sectors.
EURECOM’s research teams are always organized around three departments: - Digital Security Dept., headed by Professor Refik Molva - Data Science Dept., headed by Professor Pietro Michiardi - Communication Systems Dept., headed by Professor David Gesbert

Adlen Ksentini joins EURECOM as Assistant ProfessorAdlen, tell us about you: "After my PhD at the University of Cergy-Pontoise (Paris) on wireless networks, I had the opportunity to get an assistant professorship at the University of Rennes 1, and I continued my research on wireless and mobile networks where I witnessed the evolution from GSM to 5G. My experience and knowledge in network virtualization will be very useful to EURECOM's research on mobile network evolution towards 5G. I will work on the implementation of flexible and dynamic SDN and NFV-based networks with mobile edge computing (MEC) capacities. However, several barriers need to be removed to reach softwarization, such as reliability, scalability, and resource management. I am very happy to work on these topics in the Communication Systems Department through collaboration with field experts and the use of the OpenAirInterface platform to test my solutions."
