[Short CV] [Research Interests] [Research Labs] [Project Involvements] [Publications]

I received my degrees in the fields of Computer Science ("Technische Informatik"), Information Management, Software Engineering and Internet Computing in 2006 and 2007 from the Vienna University of Technology.

Since January 2008, I am Research Assistant and PhD Student at the Distributed Systems Group supervised by Prof. Schahram Dustdar.

I positioned my research topic in the area of Trust in Service-oriented Environments, including the notion of trust in such environments, trust metrics, trust measurement, calculation and inference, and trust models for aggregation, propagation, evaluation and emergence. The goal is to support collaborations of humans and services in one harmonized environment by providing a global view on trust relations between them.
The VieTE framework implements and realizes trust concepts and models. Please also refer to the VieTE page at http://www.infosys.tuwien.ac.at/prototyp/VieTE/VieTE_index.html.
