Speaker Profile

Jeremie Allard

Jeremie Allard

Jeremie Allard received his Ph.D. in Computer Science from the Institute National Polytechnique de Grenoble (INPG) in 2005 for his work on interactive distributed applications. He earned his Masters in Computer Science from the University of New Orleans in 2002, working on a research project on visual programming. Shortly after his PhD, he joined EVASION for 3 month to work on fluid/solid coupling, and the SOFA open-source simulation framework, concentrating on parallelism and component design issues. He then moved to the Simulation Group @ CIMIT, where he is continuing this work.

During his PhD in the MOAIS team, he focused on FlowVR, an open-source framework for interactive distributed simulation and visualization applications. Experiments where conducted on the GrImage platform, where the user can interact in full 3D inside a highly dynamic virtual environment with coupled solids, fluids and deformable objects, exploiting 50 processors, 10 cameras and 16 video-projectors in real-time. The results of this work were published in Europar 2004, IEEE Visualization 2005 and IEEE VR 2006.
