Curriculum vitae:

I studied at the University of Hamburg from 1983 till 1991 majoring in computer science (minor physics). Special interests were programming languages, compilers, artificial intelligence programming. During my studies I worked part-time for several industrial companies, developing electronic publishing and archival software for optical storage devices (CD-ROM, WORM). In my master's thesis I wrote an optimizing compiler for the object-oriented programming language Smalltalk.

Now I am engaged in the FIDE-2 project, working on the Tycoon language environment. My PhD Thesis focusses on database programming language design and implementation, object-oriented type systems, and dynamic program optimization.

Research projects:

• Tycoon object-oriented Language TooL
• Dynamic program optimization based on persistent Continuation Passing Style (CPS) terms
