After my time as a student (1990-1999) and research staff member (1999-2004) at the institute, researching in network and systems management, I switched in October 2004 to a more practical profession as a technical staff member, responsible for network and systems administration.

Projects and Research Topics

Jasmin: In the joint Jasmin project between TU Braunschweig and the NEC Network Laboratories, Europe from 1998 to August 2001 a prototype implementation of the IETF Script MIB (RFC 3165) has been developed. Based on it, the concepts of the Script MIB and the Jasmin architecture have been evaluated, several enhancements have been added, and a concept for policy-based management based on the Script-MIB has been developed.

SMIng: Based on my diploma thesis, which has been finished in May 1999, a new language for modeling network management information - SMIng - has been enhanced as an NMRG project. It became a starting point for the SMING working group of the IETF. I've been actively involved in this working group.

LibSMI: As a practical part of my diploma thesis a software library for the management and access of MIB management information has been developed. libsmi was released in June 1999 under an open source license. Since then, it is still being maintained and enhanced. E.g., it contains a number of tools for MIB authors, reviewers and implementors.
