Groups
- Chair of Software Engineering
Samuel Kounev, University of Wuerzburg
Methods, techniques and tools for the engineering of self-aware systems and services. Focus areas include autonomic management of system quality-of-service, dependability, resource-efficiency and energy-efficiency throughout the system lifecycle.
- Distributed And Dependable Systems Group (D3S)
Petr Tůma, Charles University in Prague
Performance evaluation of distributed systems, regression benchmarking during software development, performance models of system resources.
- Software And Programmer Efficiency Research Group (SAPE)
Matthias Hauswirth, University of Lugano
Works in the domain of programming languages, runtime systems, and software engineering, with a focus on the efficiency of software. Publication highlights include multiple papers dealing with measurement accuracy issues.
- Software Design And Quality Group (SDQ)
Ralf Reussner, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology
Component-based architectures and model-driven engineering, with focus on model reverse engineering and performance modeling. The Palladio approach to software quality originated in this group.
- Software Engineering Group @ Kiel
Willi Hasselbring, Kiel University
Among other topics, software system quality such as availability, reliability, and performance, distributed systems monitoring. The Kieker monitoring system originated in this group.
- System Performance Lab @ Ghent
Lieven Eeckhout, Ghent University
Computer architectures in general, performance analysis, evaluation and modeling in particular. Publication highlights include works on workload characterization and workload reduction techniques.
- Parallel and Distributed Systems Group (PDS)
Alexandru Iosup, TU Delft
Working on performance and resource management for large-scale distributed systems like cloud, grid, and peer-to-peer computing systems and for massively multiplayer online games.
