Short Bio

I became an assistant professor at the University of Lugano in September 2007 after working at the IBM Zurich Research Lab since February 2007. My PhD is from the Department of Computer Science of ETH Zurich, where I was also a post-doc starting June 2004, and an oberassistent during 2006 in the IKS Group.

My research focuses on building experimental systems to explore the intersection of model-driven software composition techniques, business process modeling languages, and autonomic/Grid computing. Recently I have developed an interest in Mashups and Architectural Decisions.

I have designed a visual composition language and built a set of very powerful rapid composition tools for Eclipse in the context of a project called JOpera: Process Support for more than Web Services. Both my dissertation and my system are available for download.
