He is also one of the pioneers of the development of the Internet in Tunisia in the early 1990s. | |||
== Contribution to computer science == | |||
The contribution of Dr. Kamoun in the domain of [[hierarchical routing]] begun in 1979 with his professor at the University of California [[UCLA]], [[Leonard Kleinrock]]. They argued that the optimal number of levels for an <math>N</math> router subnet is <math>ln(N)</math>, requiring a total of <math>e\cdot ln(N)</math> entries per router. They also shown that the increase in effective mean [[path length]] caused by hierarchical routing is sufficiently small that it is usually acceptable. | |||
The research work driven on Tunisia in the 1980s on network flow control based on buffer management is considered as a base to the now selective reject algorithms used in the Internet. | |||
== Education and career == | |||
He received a French engineering degree in 1970, a [[Master's degree|Master's]] and a [[PhD degree]] from the [[University of California at Los Angeles]] Computer Science Department. | |||
His PhD work, undertaken under the supervision of Dr [[Leonard Kleinrock]], a pioneer in the area of networking, was related to the design of large [[computer network]]s. They were among the first to introduce and evaluate cluster-based hierarchical routing. Results obtained then are still very relevant and have recently inspired considerable work in the area of ''ad hoc'' networking. | |||
He returned to [[Tunisia]] in 1976 and was given the task to create and chair the first Computer Science School of the country (ENSI). From 1982 to 1993, he chaired the CNI, Centre National de l'Informatique, a Government Office in charge of IT policies and strategic development. | |||
He promoted the field of networking in [[Tunisia]], through the organization of several national conferences and workshops dealing with networks. As chairman of CNI, he represented [[Tunisia]] at the general assembly and executive board meetings of the [[Intergovernmental Bureau for Informatics]] (IBI) in Rome, in the '80s, as well as those of the [[UNESCO]] IT Intergovernmental Committee, with a focus on issues related to developing countries. | |||
From 1993 till 1999, he served as Dean of ENSI, Ecole Nationale des Sciences de l'Informatique, a School of Engineering dedicated to the training of computer engineers. Since 1999, he continue teaching and serve as director of the CRISTAL Research Laboratory of the ENSI. He is also an advisor in IT fields to the Tunisian minister of Higher Education, Scientific Research and Technology. | |||

As Dean and Professor , He introduced new courses on networking and sat | |||
up an Intranet and a connection to the Internet. ENSI was the first | |||
University School in Tunisia to be connected to the Internet.. He also | |||
launched a strong graduate program leading to the PhD degree, with a | |||
major field in networking. ENSI is now recognized as the best school | |||
for training network and Internet engineers in Tunisia. It enjoys an | |||
excellent reputation outside of Tunisia. Many of his former students | |||
have accomplished outstanding work during their PhD studies abroad. | |||
He is currently Professor of Computer Sc. at ENSI and Director of a | |||
research laboratory, that He founded in 1999, "CRISTAL". Their Research | |||
work is focussed on the field of multimedia networking and Image | |||
processing. As regards networking, we deal with the QoS and multimedia | |||
communications for the Internet, Security, Mobility, Wi-Fi and Ad Hoc | |||
networks as well as e-commerce.. | |||
He is author and co-author of over 100 scientific publications, | |||
technical and strategic reports ( a list of scientific publications is | |||
provided). | |||
He is member of the International Council for Computer Communications | |||
(ICCC), the IFIP Technical Committee 6 and The Internet Society and | |||
the editorial board of 2 scientific journals. | |||
As governor of ICCC (since 1984), He chaired the developing countries | |||
working group. | |||
He co-chaired the program committees and organized in Tunisia, 3 joint | |||
ICCC Computer Communication Conference for Development Countries CCDC | |||
and IFIP TC6 Africom conference in 1986, 1991 and 1998. In parallel | |||
with the CCDC-Africom conferences, He organized the regular ICCC annual | |||
Board of Governors and Executive Board meetings as well as the | |||
IFIP-TC6 meetings. | |||
He also organized several workshops and conferences on Internet and | |||
recently on Ad-Hoc networks (June 2003). | |||
Besides his University work, He have been IT advisor to the Minister of | |||
Higher Education, Scientific Research and Technology, for the last ten | |||
years. In that position, he chaired numerous committees and advised the | |||
Ministry on several issues such as: the development of the Internet | |||
within the university system, Information Technology and the "School | |||
of Tomorrow"( a ten year strategic plan till the year 2010), the | |||
development of training in IT, the development of a national strategy | |||
plan for R&D in ICT and He had also been involved with the planning of | |||
the Tunisian Virtual University.. | |||
Involvement with the Internet to date | |||
His first involvement, with networking, was during his PhD work at UCLA | |||
during the 70's where I got quite involved with the Arpanet. Then upon | |||
his return to Tunisia, and as mentioned above, he have been the main | |||
driving force in the introduction of packet switching networks and in | |||
particular the Internet in Tunisia. he established the first | |||
international connections , launched the first network pilot project, | |||
and trained the first engineers in the field. His school, ENSI, was the | |||
first university institution to be connected to the Internet. | |||
He chaired a team that devised the first deployment plan connecting | |||
30000 students, faculty and staff to the Internet within the | |||
university system in Tunisia, the plan has been adopted by the | |||
ministry and put to execution. | |||
He also chaired a team that devised and convinced the ministry in | |||
charge of education (elementary and high school) to deploy the | |||
Internet throughout the high school system and to introduce a | |||
mandatory course on the Internet and multimedia at the K12 level, the | |||
plan has been approved and executed. | |||
He also chaired a technical committee on "IT and the school of | |||
tomorrow" whose objectives were to study the impact of IT and the | |||
Internet on education, we devised a 10 year plan , 2000-2010, that has | |||
been approved by the government of Tunisia and is being executed. | |||
Lately He got involved in Distance Education through some expertise I | |||
provided to the Tunisian Virtual University and through some research | |||
activities related networking infrastructures and protocols for | |||
distance education. | |||
Finally as a professor in the field , He have been training a great | |||
number of students on the Internet technology. | |||
Involvement with the Internet Society to date | |||
He have been member of ISOC for the last 10 years. I participated to an | |||
ISOC meeting in France and have been pushing for the creation of a | |||
chapter in Tunisia. | |||
Strengths, unique features and expected contributions | |||
His leadership in the networking field is well established in Tunisia | |||
as well as abroad. He has a unique experience as Academician to | |||
develop training and research on the Internet and as a former head of | |||
a government agency to build national strategies and pilot projects to | |||
create know how and enable transfer of technology . His understanding | |||
of the interplay between education and the needs of society, | |||
particularly in the developing world, is he believe unique. He can bring | |||
my experience to ISOC in dealing with issues related to the Internet | |||
and developing countries, such as: Internet deployment, governance, | |||
legal issues, training, advanced internet applications, e-commerce, | |||
e-learning, e-government. Moreover, I can relay ISOC philosophy and | |||
message to the developing world. | |||
His experience with international bodies such as IFIP and ICCC as well | |||
as UNESCO will be quite valuable for my work within the ISOC board of | |||
trustees | |||
. | |||
Being trilingual (French, English and Arabic) and having lived in | |||
North America, Europe and now in North Africa are strong assets for a | |||
better understanding of developing countries specific needs and | |||
requirements and moreover, to foster a constructive dialogue between | |||
the developing and the developed countries. | |||
