Rate My Professor Soufiene Djahel

Djahel's research focuses on wireless networks including path planning, routing, and task offloading for unmanned aerial vehicles, coordination protocols and safety applications for connected and autonomous vehicles, and 5G/B5G network slicing; cyber security for resource-constrained devices, IoT systems, e-healthcare, and critical infrastructure like smart grids and transport networks; intelligent transportation systems; and smart cities applications in air pollution monitoring, sustainability, and disaster management. Key publications feature 'Path-planning for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles with Environment Complexity Considerations: A Survey' (ACM Computing Surveys, 2023), 'A Scalable Time-Division-Based Emergency Messages Broadcast Scheme for Connected and Autonomous Vehicles in Urban Environment' (Vehicular Communications, 2022), 'A new delay-based broadcast suppression mechanism for efficient emergency messages dissemination in CAVs environment' (Ad Hoc Networks, 2023), and 'AVARS - Alleviating Unexpected Urban Road Traffic Congestion using UAVs' (arXiv, 2023). He leads projects such as Unmanned Aerial Vehicles as a Service in Smart Cities Applications and Cooperative Routing, Re-Routing and Recharge Scheduling for Connected Electric Vehicles. Awards include the FY2021 JSPS Invitational Fellowship for Research in Japan and IEEE Student Travel Grant for Globecom 2009. Djahel contributes as Track Chair for IEEE ICC 2025 and VTC2025-Spring, Guest Editor for IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems, PhD examiner, and reviewer for funding proposals.
