I’m an associate professor (Maître de conférences) at the networks and telecommunication department at the University Institutes of Technology of Béthune, France, and a member of the LGI2A laboratory.

I received my PhD in Computer Science and Operations Research from the Université de Technologie de Compiègne (UTC), Sorbonne Universities , France in 2014. My thesis focused on scheduling and vehicle routing problems.

My research interests include combinatorial optimization, operations research, and logistics. I am particularly interested in the development of exact and heuristic algorithms for solving complex problems in these fields. My work often involves the application of mathematical programming techniques, metaheuristics, and machine learning methods to tackle real-world challenges.

I also hold an Engineering degree in Computer Systems from National School of Computer Science (ESI), Algiers, since 2011.
