Dr. Soufiene Djahel is a research fellow at University College Dublin and member of wireless networking group of PEL. He is mainly involved in TRAFFIC project.
In 2011, he was a postdoc fellow at ENSIIE where he was involved in a research project aiming at designing communication protocols for Hybrid Sensor and Vehicular Networks (HSVNs). He got his Ph.D degree in computer science in December 2010 from university of Lille1 (Lille, France). During his Ph.D, he was working on security issues at MAC and Routing layers in wireless multi-hop networks. Prior to that, he spent 6 months at INRIA NORD Europe research center as an engineer researcher. He received a magister degree with majors in networking and distributed systems and an engineering degree in computer science from Abderrahmane-mira University (Bejaia, Algeria) and Badji-Mokhtar University (Annaba, Algeria) in February 2007 and June 2004, respectively.
The research interests of Soufiene Djahel fall under the field of wireless networking with main focus on communication protocols design and security in MANETs, WMNs, VANETs and WSNs. He is also interested in designing a robust architecture for Hybrid Sensor and Vehicular Networks (HSVNs) to enhance driving safety and comfort on the roads.
He is member of IEEE and reviewer of its major conferences and journals in wireless networking and security. He has also served on the TPC of some conferences including IFIP wireless days, IEEE WCNC and IEEE IWCMC.
