France
Posted 2 years ago

With its excellent teaching and innovative pedagogy, Télécom Paris is at the heart of a unique innovation ecosystem, based on interaction and the importance of project mode in its training on the one hand, and its interdisciplinary research on the other. Its teacher-researchers are affiliated with two research laboratories: on the one hand, the LTCI laboratory, which is presented by the HCERES as a flagship unit in the field of digital sciences with remarkable international influence; and on the other hand, the i3 laboratory, Interdisciplinary Institute of Innovation (I3 – UMR 9217 of the CNRS), which pursues a multidisciplinary research program focused on innovation in the framework of a collaboration with the École Polytechnique and Mines ParisTech

Based in Palaiseau, at the heart of the Institut Polytechnique campus alongside the École Polytechnique, ENSTA, Télécom Sud Paris and ENSAE, Télécom Paris also has an incubator based in Paris at the heart of the French start-up ecosystem.

Télécom Paris is positioned as an open-air laboratory for all the major technological and societal challenges: artificial intelligence, quantum computing, IOT, cybersecurity, large-scale digital equipment (Cloud), 5G/6G, Green IT.

SCIENTIFIC CONTEXT

The rapid evolution of digital applications leads to evermore connected objects characterized by complex algorithms, severe performance and robustness requirements (autonomous vehicle, IoTs, high-speed networks, industry 4.0, smart home, etc.). Anticipating on these new demands, the SSH teams design advanced embedded systems through ambitious projects in collaboration with many academic and industrial partners. The research focuses on the architectures of embedded systems and digital circuits under severe design constraints. Methods to jointly optimize speed, security, complexity, and consumption are developed. The validation is based both on a mathematical formalism and on the prototyping of electronic circuits. Tests are carried out within the analysis laboratory.

The team is also characterized by a significant teaching activity in Engineering and Master courses, with a pedagogy based on practice and projects. Courses are regularly updated with the most recent technologies and design methods based on the research outcomes.
DESIRED SCIENTIFIC EXPERTISE
