 I am a computer scientist with additional interest in physics, philosophy and politics. At the moment, I act as security consultant, software architect, and manage a project on server virtualization for security and high-availability and the Gibraltar firewall development at eSYS GmbH. Previously, I held a Guest Professorship in Mobile Computing at University of Vienna, AT and before that a Marie Curie Fellowship at the University of Lancaster, UK. My main research interests are context awareness and security, and I am trying to combine both to create secure systems that are still usable by the "man on the street". I received my venia docendi (Habilitation) from University of Vienna, AT, and my masters ("Dipl.-Ing.") and PhD (officially Doctor technicae - "Dr. techn.") degrees from Johannes Kepler University of Linz, AT. |
