Welcome / Bienvenue !

English page | Page française | My friends

... I'm 26 years old and I was trained as an electronics engineer. I was skilled in electronics and computer science (at a large level). I have been working in electronics, industrial/embeded computer science and software development for 2 years. For now, I'm teaching physics and chemistry in first degree

I like to program and teach.

I'm living now at Valence (France) with my girlfriend (Stéphanie) and my two children.

2°) My CV are available in .doc format (Word97) :

- CV in teaching: SXW PDF DOC
- CV in electronics (old) : DOC
- CV computer science (old) : SXW PDF DOC
- details of skills (old) : SXW PDF DOC

Disappointed by my previous job and more interested in training/teaching, I have taken other studying and I have sucessfully passed a French teaching certificate on 2006.

3°) I have been working as opensource developper since 1999 on various projects. These projects are related to Linux and/or Texas Instruments' graphing calculators/hand-helds :

- development of analysis tools (home-made) : SCALP, AVRlink, DSP TMS320C31,

- some documentation on TI hand-helds communication protocols (written with a young American),
- the design of a web site called 'Linux Programmer Group' : http://lpg.ticalc.org,
- a hand-held/PC linking program (TiLP) : http://tilp.info, (which is regularly rated in the top of downloads on ticalc.org),
- some device drivers (serial/parallel) for Linux : http://lpg.ticalc.org/prj_tidev,
- an emulator (TiEmu) and it's iPAQ port : http://lpg.ticalc.org/prj_tiemu/index.html,
- porting a full 'C' tool suite (TiGCC/Linux) : http://lpg.ticalc.org/prj_tigcc,
- some USB device drivers for Windows and Linux : http://lpg.ticalc.org/prj_usb,
- I'm discussing with TI Education in order to get more than devices (specifications of protocols),

- an GTK+ GUI which allows to configure the 2.6 linux kernel (gkc): http://tilp.info/perso/gkc.html

TiLP and TiEmu contains almost 100 000 lines of code and most of them are libraries (DLL/SO).

4°) Well, I have some hobbies, too :
- sport: biking, swimming pool, mountain riding, skiing,
- hobbies: cooking (hmm...), reading, movies.

5°) At last, I'm managing my own small server running under GNU/Linux Debian.

6°) What we can do with a nice USB webcam and the motion program under Linux: I have taken a movie of my unexpected renter (a mouse). It is stealing some cheese without triggering capture (less than 5 seconds).

7°) I have connected my power counter to my gateway's serial port (RS232, 7E1) and I retrieve its data stream. Given that I pay for electricity once per month, I got 1 file per year. This system allows me to track my power consumption. By this way, I get daily/mensually/yearly rating. At the end, I have some nice graphs. Picture.
