Welcome to my home page! I am a Senior Research Scientist at the Department of Computer Science III of the University of Bonn. For more detailed information about me please see my curriculum vitae.
My primary research interests lay in the area of distributed heterogeneous data intensive information systems. Current research interests are focused primarily on distributed data management issues and networks of distributed servises. They also include related networking and systems issues, particularly as they pertain to streaming and integration of data in grid and sensor networks.
My previous research was focused on the following topics:
- interoperability and integration of systems in heterogeneous network environments
- scalable data intensive architectures, data-grids
- adaptable hight-performance distributed information systems and databases
- transparent persistency in distributed information systems
- Web-based information systems, GeoPortals
- database systems for complex semistructured data, 3D and temporal data, Geodatabases
Take a look at the list of research projects below for further information on my research.
When I don't have any good ideas for research, I travel and take pictures.
