Youssef Hamadi’s research is set at the intersection of Optimization and Artificial Intelligence. He completed his PhD at the University of Montpellier, devising new algorithms for Distributed Constraint Solving. In 2013, he defended his Habilitation on the concept of Autonomous Search at the University of Paris Sud. In 2003, he created the Constraint Reasoning Group at Microsoft Research Cambridge, pushing the limits of Parallel Satisfiability and large-scale Optimization, while transferring mathematical modeling and algorithms into several Microsoft products. In 2006, Youssef started to work on the relationships between mathematical programming and Sustainability, creating jointly with CNRS the first European research project on Optimization for Sustainable Development. He joined Uber Elevate in 2019 to work on Autonomous aircrafts.
