I am a Ph.D. student at the Saarland University's Computer Science Department. My advisor is Prof. Jens Dittrich. Currently I am working on challenges in distributed computing, especially the MapReduce approach and Cloud Computing. Besides I am a member of the Saarbrücken Graduate School of Computer Science since 2008.
