I'm working at the IBR since november 2002 as a PhD student and research staff member supervised by Prof. Dr.-Ing. Lars Wolf.
Within the ELAN-project I'm responsible for the multimedia-technology needed for production and provisioning of audiovisual eLearning-content.
My research work is focused on the evaluation and realization of network-centric music performance in the related NMP project.
