Rémi Després (born January 16, 1943) is a French

entrepreneur known for his contributions on data networking
.

Education

In 1961–1963, Rémi Després attended

École Polytechnique
of Paris, of which he holds an Engineer degree.

At

Ph.D degree in 1969, both in the EECS Department.[1]

Career

From 1963 to 1971 at CNET and UC Berkeley, he specialized in programming languages and time-sharing operating systems.[2]

From 1971 to 1980, Rémi Després was in charge of

TRANSPAC network whose X.25 service has been operational from 1978 to 2011.[8][9]

After working one year for

TCP/IP, the Internet technology. When Streamcore SA was terminated in 2003, its StreamGroomer products were taken over by a new company, Streamcore Systems SA
.

Since 2003, Rémi Després has been working as an independent researcher and consultant, mainly contributing to

IPv4 service across IPv6-only networks.[15] He also proposed a mechanism for Internet Service Providers to assign IPv6 addresses into customer sites that still have IPv4-only residential gateways,[16] with the distinctive feature that IPv6 traffic between devices of a same site remains within this site. In 2011, Rémi Després and Alexandre Cassen received the Itojun Service Award[17] of the Internet Society for their IPv6 work.[18]
