About Me

In my previous work, I have covered a broad spectrum of activities. In a leading role in the development of the Open Energy Platform, I created a platform for data exchange in the energy modeling domain. My foundational work on the Open Energy Ontology enabled these data to be annotated using rich semantic technologies -- initially independently and later together with a team that I advised. Collaborations with Prof. Janna Hastings and Dr. Fabian Neuhaus provided me with in-depth experience in ontology development and its application, and resulted in multiple publications on this topic. In addition, my many years of work with Prof. Till Mossakowski have given me solid expertise in the theoretical aspects of formal semantics.
