Bio as of his openlab time
Andreas Hirstius has a background in experimental particle
physics. For his M.Sc. thesis at the Humboldt University
Berlin he analysed data from the L3-Experiment at LEP. Later
he joined the NA48 collaboration and changed to the Johannes
Gutenberg University Mainz, from which he holds a Ph.D.
During his studies he has been always involved with
computing. First he was a system administrator at the
computing center of the Physics dept. of the Humboldt
University. In 2000 and 2001 he was responsible for the
third level trigger and the central data recording of the
NA48 experiment. His current field of interest is more
hardware related and includes testing of 10GB networking
hardware and the Storage Tank SAN filesystem. He was also
involved in the 10GB WAN PHY long haul test and the latest
DataTAG measurements. |
