Distributed Systems Group  
About our groupThe Distributed System research group conducts teaching and research into all aspects of distributed computing ranging from theoretical foundations to applied system and software engineering issues. Our current research focuses on middleware for quality-aware, adaptive distributed applications, self-managing distributed systems and semantic web technologies for distributed computing. Head of the research group is Prof. Dr. Kurt Geihs.  The research group was established in 2004 as an endowment of Deutsche Bank AG and B. Braun Melsungen AG. News/Highlights2009-04-28: Annual report 2008 available The annual report of our research group for 2008 is available now (in German). 2009-03-02: GI/ITG conference "Kommunikation in Verteilten Systemen" KiVS (Communication in Distributed Systems) The KiVS 2009 will be hosted in Kassel. The research groups Distributed Systems and Communication Technology (ComTec) will organize this traditional event which belongs to the most renowned conferences on Distributed Systems in the German-speaking countries. For more details, have a look at the KiVS website.
Now already for the fourth time the SAKS workshop will be organized by the research groups of Distributed Systems and ComTec, this time in the context of the KiVS conference. It will take place at the same venue, the University of Kassel, and addresses topics like self-properties, adaptivity, and context-sensitivity of Distributed Systems.
2008-03-10: SAKS Workshop in Wiesbaden on 10.03.08
Our workshop SAKS will be continued again this year, this time in the context of the Spring Meeting of the GI/ITG groups Operating Systems (BS) and Communication in Distributed Systems (KuVS). The workshop will be located at the University of Applied Sciences (FH) in Wiesbaden on March 10, 2008 and will be organised by the research groups Distributed Systems and Communication Technologies of the University of Kassel and the Operating Systems/Distributed Systems group of the FH Wiesbaden.
