Short Biography

I am a PhD student and research assistant at the Chair of Communication and Distributed Systems since November 2010. My research interests lie in (Wireless) Sensor Networks, Participatory and/or Ubiquitous Sensing and Delay-Tolerant Networking.

From May to October 2010 I worked on the Floating Content project for the Department of Communications and Networking (Comnet) at Aalto University in Helsinki, Finland.

In March 2010 I graduated as a Diplom-Informatiker (M.Sc. equiv.) in computer science at RWTH Aachen University in Germany. In my diploma thesis I developed a routing protocol for Wireless Sensor Networks using probabilistic addressing.
