Preference (In-)Stability: A Matter of Context

Scalable Data Security and Storage Concepts for Industry 4.0 Environments

Promotion am Promotionszentrum „Ingenieurwissenschaften und Informationstechnologien” (IWIT)


Schon während meines Studiums und der Arbeit in einem IT-Startup habe ich mich sehr für hochkonfigurierbare Systeme und deren Datensicherheitsanforderungen interessiert. Da diese Anforderungen insbesondere bei Datenspeicherlösungen im industriellen Kontext, z.B. Cloudsystemen, von enormer Bedeutung sind, fokussiere ich mich in meiner Promotion auf die Industrie 4.0. Das Promotionszentrum IWIT ermöglicht mir, dieses Themenfeld weiter zu erschließen und meinen Teil an der momentanen Forschung in diesen Bereichen beizutragen. Betreut werde ich bei meinem Vorhaben durch Prof. Dr.-Ing. Thomas Leich (Hochschule Harz) und Prof. Dr. rer. nat. habil. Gunter Saake (Otto-von-Guericke-Universität Magdeburg).

Forschungsschwerpunkte:

  • Software und Requirements Engineering
  • Konfigurierbare Systeme, insbesondere Softwareproduktlinien
  • Datensicherheitskonzepte

Akademische Ausbildung 

  • Master of Engineering: Technisches Innovationsmanagement
  • Bachelor of Science: Medieninformatik (Schwerpunkt Informatik), Auslandssemester im Studiengang Medizininformatik
