Who am I ?

• I am professor emeritus at Sorbonne University (former known as Université Pierre et Marie Curie (UPMC also known as Paris 6)) in the department of Computer Science.
• I belonged to the LIP6 laboratory and, more precisely, to the APR team.
• I am now retired. However I am running a small company Paracamplus where I am the architect of CodeGradX: an infrastructure for automatized grading of programs.
• I am also the conceptor of the TRINV Web site. TRINV stands for "cadasTRe INVersé" that given a city and a surface searches the land register and displays a map with the found lands.

This section allows you to quickly retrieve additional documents if you already know about them. The bibliography is an easy way to retrieve all my papers and associated programs.

• My official bibliography (sorted by year) with abstracts
• My papers in PDF (this is a raw translation from Postscript often ugly on screen for non recent papers but they print well) but look before at the copyright notice
• The programs of my (best selling) book entitled Lisp in Small Pieces. You may also see this GitHub site.

It took me years to understand enough English to appreciate some Lisp puns!
