Patrick Maillé has been with IMT Atlantique (formerly Telecom Bretagne) since 2002, where he obtained his PhD in applied mathematics in 2005 and his habilitation (University of Rennes 1) in 2015. He had held visiting scholar appointments at Columbia University (June-December 2006) and UC Berkeley (academic year 2014-2015). His research interests are in all economic aspects of telecommunication networks, from pricing schemes at the user level, to auctions for spectrum and regulatory issues. He has authored or co-authored more than 150 papers on those topics and is along with Bruno Tuffin the author of “Telecommunication Network Economics: From Theory to Applications” published in 2014.Bruno Tuffin received his PhD degree in applied mathematics from the University of Rennes 1 (France) in 1997. Since then, he has been with Inria in Rennes and is the leader of the team called Dionysos since January 2022. He spent eight months as a postdoc at Duke University in 1999. His research interests include developing Monte Carlo and quasi-Monte Carlo simulation techniques for the performance evaluation of telecommunication systems, and developing new Internet-pricing schemes and telecommunication-related economic models. He has published close to two hundred papers on those issues. He has also led or participated into several French and European projects, and co-organized several conferences.
