Prof. Anja Feldmann, Ph.D.

Principal Investigator

Prof. Anja Feldmann, Ph.D. (TU Berlin), has been director of the Max Planck Institute for Computer Science in Saarbrücken and honorary professor at the TU Berlin and Saarland University since the beginning of 2018. She studied computer science at the University of Paderborn from which she graduated in 1990. She then continued her studies at Carnegie Mellon University (USA), where she obtained her Master of Science in 1991 and her Ph.D. four years later. She spent the following four years as a researcher at AT&T Labs Research before accepting professorships at Saarland University and the TU Munich.

Since 2006 she has held the Chair of Internet Network Architectures at Telekom Innovation Laboratories, an institute affiliated with the TU Berlin. In May 2012, she became the first female member of the SAP Supervisory Board, representing management.

Fields of Research

Data analytics, Software defined networking, Internet measurement, Traffic characterization, Network management, Network performance debugging, Improving application performance.
