Dr Pigné Yoann is assistant professor at the University of Le Havre, France. He is interested in the modelling and simulation of interaction networks, and especially focuses on human and mobile patterns. His work belongs to various fields of research from Complex Networks, Dynamic Graphs, to Complex Systems.

Dr. Pigné presented a research project titled « Urban Traffic Simulation with Communicating Vehicles » for which he collaborates with our unit Mobility.

He presented Technologies and protocols around inter-vehicle or infrastructure-to-vehicle communication (commonly denominated VANET, Vehicular Ad hoc NETworks) that have rapidly evolved in the recent years. He showed various fields of application that are also interested in this evolution, such as road safety, traffic management, or environmental concerns. In order to validate new models and researches, traffic and networking simulation platforms are widely used in combination with mobility models.
