Research and Positions

Since December 2004 I have been a research staff member  in the Business Integration Technologies group. Before joining IBM Research as a post-doctoral researcher in July 2004, I was a researcher in the Database and Information Systems group at Universität Paderborn, Germany and C-LAB, a joint research and development laboratory operated by Siemens IT Solutions and Services GmbH & Co OHG and the University of Paderborn.

I studied Computer Science with Mathematics at University of Paderborn, with stays at Carleton University, Canada, and University College London, UK. I received my Diploma (Dipl. Inf.) and my Doctorate  (Dr. rer. nat.) in Computer Science  in 2000 and 2004, respectively, both from the University of Paderborn.

My research interests are in software engineering with a focus on model-driven development, model transformations and modeling tool engineering. Current research interests include process model change management, versioning of models and software engineering for model transformations.
