CV

In 2005 I received a German Diploma degree in Computer Science from the Technical University of Braunschweig. My major fields were distributed systems, databases and chip design.

After one year of work on model-based testing of automotive systems for dSPACE GmbH, I joined the industrial PhD programme of Volkswagen Group in June 2006. Since then, I am conducting research in the field of Car-to-X Communication in the Driver Information Systems Research department.

In May 2009, I received my Ph.D. degree from the University of Düsseldorf for my thesis "Content Location in Sparse Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks - Feasibility, Implementation, Optimization on the Case of a City Scenario".
