I am Joel Falcou, Destroyer of World, Terror of the Compilers.

In my spare time, I am an associated professor at the University Paris-Saclay and researcher at the Laboratoire de Recherche d’Informatique in Orsay, France. My research focuses on studying generative programming idioms and techniques to design tools for parallel software development.

I also have a rather personal take on humor as you may have noticed already.

The main parts of my research topic are:

• the exploration of Embedded Domain Specific Language design for parallel computing on various architectures;
• the definition of a formal framework for reasoning about meta-programs.

As I need something to pad my academic paper up to at least eight pages, I usually play around with various application fields like real-time image processing on embedded architectures or HPC on multi-core clusters.

I am the co-host of the C++FRUG Meetup, president of the C++FRUG Association and I co-organize the CPPP Conference.
