From July 2008 to June 2010 I worked as a web applications developer (for linguistic tools) at the Max Planck Institute for
Psycholinguistics in Nijmegen (Netherlands). My main task was to develop a Flex-Java based web application with a graphical user interface
to be flexible enough to display rich multimodal ressources (audio, video, text) with detailed annotations in any language. This web application was
also ported to the desktop as an AIR application.
Another task was the development of an interface to bridge several existing language archiving and annotation tools (AIR-based and browser-based Flex
applications as well as installed Java applications).
Main technologies: Flex, Flash, AIR, Java, JavaScript, Tomcat, XML.
From 2006 to mid-2008, I worked as an e-learning
developer at the University of Nottingham (UK). My main task was to design, develop, implement and evaluate a web-based multimodal interactive language learning platform for all the 14 foreign languages offered at the university (European languages, Arabic, Japanese and Mandarin Chinese).
Main technologies: Flash, PHP, MySQL, XML, XHTML, JavaScript, CSS.
From 2003 to early 2007 I did a Ph.D. in the field of Intelligent Computer-Assisted
Language Learning. Throughout my Ph.D. I developed innovative server-side and client-side software components. Please see section "Ph.D. details" for more information about my Ph.D. research.
Main technologies: Flash, Perl, PHP, Java, Tomcat, XML, MySQL.
