Mehdi Bouaziz
I am a PhD student under the joint supervision of Jérôme Feret and Patrick Cousot, in the team Abstraction of the Computer Science department of the École normale supérieure in Paris. I am working on static analysis of security properties by abstract interpretation.
Previously, I was a normalien student of the École normale supérieure (2007 – 2012). I had been a research intern at Microsoft Research, Redmond, WA, with Francesco Logozzo (2011, 2012) and with Ella Bounimova (2011); at the Stevens Institute of Technology, Hoboken, NJ, with David Naumann (2010); at the École normale supérieure, Paris, with Antoine Miné (2010); and at MLstate, Edinburgh (2009) and Paris (2008). I was a bronze medalist (2004, Athens, Greece) and a gold medalist (2005, Nowy Sącz, Poland) at the International Olympiads in Informatics (IOI), and a bronze medalist (2005, Sárospatak, Hungary) at the Central-European Olympiad in Informatics (CEOI), as well as a world finalist (2010, Harbin, China) at the International Collegiate Programming Contest (ACM-ICPC).
