Work experience
Oct 05 - Mar 06		BMW Car IT GmbH, Munich, Germany Intern, Human-Machine-Interface group Design, implementation and evaluation of HMI (Human-Machine-Interface) prototypes, as well as analysis and modeling of a next generation HMI development process.
Aug 06 - Sep 06		Siemens AG, Munich, Germany Intern, Computer Networks Security group within Corporate Technology Analysis and simulation of a novel approach to internet congestion: A globally scalable, inter domain packet marking that allows measuring congestion in bulk and thus allowing to use a congestion charge in providers peering contracts.
Oct 06 - Mar 07		Columbia University, New York, United States Research Scholar, Department of Computer Science, Internet Real-Time Laboratory Advisor: Prof. Henning Schulzrinne Worked on GloServ, an ontology-based context-aware service discovery system which operates in a globally distributed network. Developed an extension that exploits the functionality offered by the description logic ontology used by GloServ to allow combined queries comprised of multiple, independent service classes. Designed and implemented a prototype front-end in PHP that allows querying the GloServ back-end (written in Java).
Mar 05 - today		University of Göttingen, Germany Research Student, Institute for Informatics, Telematics Group and Networking Group Advisor: Prof. Xiaoming Fu Implemented and evaluated the General Internet Signaling Transport (GIST) protocol developed in the NSIS working group at the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) using C++ and the Linux operating system. Based on the gained experience, we continually contributed to the standardization process of GIST and related protocols. The implementation of the NSIS protocols is now an Open Source project under my technical leadership.
