Chadi Barakat keeps participating to the organization of the Mediterranean Students Days @ Campus SophiaTech. The fifth edition took place on Feb 28 - March 2, 2017, and the sixth edition will take place on February 12 - 14, 2018.

Arnaud Legout and Damien Saucez participated in the "fête de la science" event. They presented the ElectroSmart project and the R2lab Testbed.

Walid Dabbous published a popularization article on Network Architecture for Big Data in the book "Les Big Data à découvert" edited by CNRS editions [29].

Damien Saucez is part of the MASTIC (https://project.inria.fr/mastic) group at Inria. MASTIC groups all the activities for scientific dissemination for Inria Sophia Antipolis. Within this activity we visit schools to make conferences on Internet and privacy related matters and Arnaud Legout made a talk during MathC2+. Within the team, we gave a 3h game-based class to Collège interns that made an internship at Inria in November to introduce them to the fundamental algorithms used in the Internet (shortest-path, longest prefix matching, distance-vector, AIMD). We also served on the Inria stand for “fête de la science” to welcome kids and families and present mathematical games, the R2LAB testbed, and Electrosmart. In December 2017 Damien Saucez made a Café-in in Sophia Antipolis which is a 1h informal talk on the presenter’s research with all Inria collaborators (administrative, technical, and scientific). In addition to these regional activities, we also took part in the ICN Fun MOOC (https://www.fun-mooc.fr/courses/inria/41014/session01/about) where Damien Saucez made a 10 minutes explanations of the fundamentals behind Operating Systems. As of today, the video [35] has been watched more than 9k times on YouTube.
