About

Hi! I am Maël Madon, researcher in Computer Science in the SEPIA team at IRIT, University of Toulouse.

I defended my PhD in April 2024 about digital sufficiency in large-scale distributed systems. My PhD supervisors were Georges Da Costa and Jean-Marc Pierson. I want to go beyond energy efficiency techniques and involve the end-user of data centers to help mitigate the environmental footprint of ICT.
