Research
I am doing algorithm theory and algorithm engineering, i.e., I work on the design, implementation and analysis of efficient algorithms; "analysis" can be both theoretical and experimental. Topics I often touch:
- Parallel processing and communication in networks
- Solving problems with "irregular" structure
- Randomized algorithms
- Memory hierarchies (disks, caches)
- Realistic models for problems and machines
Selected Academic Activities
- DFG Focus Project Algorithm Engineering
- DFG Project Algorithm Engineering for Graphpartitioning
- DFG Project Algorithm Engineering for Route Planning
- GI Special Interest Group 0.1.3 Parallel and Distributed Algorithms
- DFG Project Algorithm Engineering for Large Graphs (finished)
