I am Kevin Vermeulen, a full-time CNRS researcher at LAAS-CNRS, Toulouse, France.
I am interested in building networked measurement systems to better understand and improve the Internet.
In particular the systems and techniques that I develop are related to these different topics:
- Network topology
- Network performance
- Network security
- Traffic engineering
Before joining the CNRS, I was a postdoc at Columbia University working with professor Ethan Katz-Bassett.
I obtained my doctorate in 2020 under the supervision of professor Timur Friedman at Sorbonne Université.
I am the maintainer of the Reverse Traceroute system. The system currently runs more than a million reverse traceroutes per day in coordination with the M-Lab NDT speedtests. The data are publicly available here.
