我司特聘Christoph Meinel教授担任技术顾问

兆民云计算专家顾问团队再添新成员。近日，我司特聘德国波茨坦大学（Potsdam University）哈索普莱特纳研究所（Hasso Plattner Institute）的Christoph Meinel教授担任技术顾问，这将大力促进我司在云计算领域技术实力的提升。

不久前，Christoph Meinel教授曾访问我司，并对我司目前在云计算方面所进行的开拓工作给予了高度的认可，这也是其欣然接受邀请，同意担任我司技术顾问的重要原因。

Christoph Meinel教授所在的HPI研究所在云安全领域有着深厚造诣，被誉为“德国的微软”，研发投入高达数亿欧元。Christoph Meinel教授作为HPI研究所的CEO，是德国2011年14个云计算方面国家科研课题的总负责人，其地位相当于中国973课题组组长。

“Christoph Meinel教授技术能力出众，此次担任我司技术顾问，将极大促进兆民公司在云安全方面的发展，也将为推进中德友谊以及世界云计算的发展做出贡献。”兆民云计算总裁范新进如是说。

附Christoph Meinel教授简历

Biography Prof. Dr. Christoph Meinel

Christoph Meinel (Univ.-Prof., Dr. rer. nat, Dr. sc. nat., 1954) is President, Scientific Director and CEO of the Hasso-Plattner-Institut for IT-Systems Engineering (HPI). HPI is a university institute, privately financed by the foundation of Hasso Plattner, one of the founders of SAP. HPI is connected to the University of Potsdam and provides excellent Bachelor, Master and PhD study courses in IT-systems engineering. In 2006 HPI hosted the first National IT-summit of the German Chancellor Dr. Merkel.

Christoph Meinel is full professor (C4) for computer sciences at HPI and University of Potsdam, holding a chair on “Internet Technologies and Systems”. His research focuses on Future Internet Technologies, in particular Internet and Information Security, Web 3.0: Semantic, Social and Service Web, as well as innovative Internet Applications, especially in the domains of e-Learning and Telemedicine. Apart from teaching in the HPI Bachelor and Master courses on IT-Systems Engineering he also teaches at the HPI School of Design Thinking. He is a visiting professor at the College for Computer Science at Beijing University of Technology in China and is a senior research fellow at the Interdisciplinary Center for Security, Reliability and Trust (SnT) at the University of Luxembourg (formerly LIASIT ? Luxembourg International Advanced Studies in Information Technology). Since 2008, he is program director of the HPI-Stanford Design Thinking Research Program together with Prof. Larry Leifer from Stanford University.

In the field of Internet Technologies and Systems he and his research team currently focus on Future Internet technologies, particularly in security and trust engineering and Web 3.0: Social, semantic and service web, on next-generation Internet applications like e-Learning and Telemedicine, and the innovation method Design Thinking. Formerly, Prof. Dr. Christoph Meinel and his research team were scientifically active in the domains of computational complexity, theoretical foundations of computer science, and efficient algorithms (with OBDDs).

Christoph Meinel is author or co-author of 12 books, and editor of various conference proceedings. He has published more than 380 papers in high-level scientific journals and at international conferences. Christoph Meinel is editor in chief of ECCC, the Electronic Colloquium on Computational Complexity, of the tele-TASK archive, and the IT-Gipfelblog.

Christoph Meinel studied Mathematics and Computer Sciences at the Humboldt-University of Berlin from 1974 to 1979 and received his PhD degree in 1981. From 1981 to 1991 he worked at the Department of Mathematics at the Humboldt University and at the Institute of Mathematics of the Academy of Sciences in Berlin as a scientific co-worker. In 1988 he received his habilitation degree with a thesis on complexity theory which was published in the series of the Springer Lecture Notes (Vol. 370). After a research stay at the University of Saarbrücken and a visiting position at the University of Paderborn, he accepted the position of a full professor (C4) for Computer Sciences at the University of Trier where he held the chair for “Theoretical Concepts and New Applications in the Computer Sciences”. In 1996 he was a co-founder of the Institut für Techno- und Wirtschaftsmathematik (ITWM) and in charge of its department in Trier. In 1998, he founded the nonprofit Institut für Telematik in Trier and was the director of this institute from 1998 to 2002. The institute was organized like a Fraunhofer Institut where most of the budget comes from applied research projects with industry and business partners. About 50 scientific co-workers, Ph.D. students, technical staff, and internees were employed. Primarily the institute specialized in Internet Security, Electronic Publishing / E-Learning, and Telemedicine. In the time of his presidency, the institute carried out 120 successful industrial projects at a value of 5.8 Mio Euro, 3 international patents were taken out, and 91 reviewed conference papers appeared. In 2004 Christoph Meinel accepted the offer to become President, Scientific Director and CEO of the HPI and professor at the University of Potsdam.

Christoph Meinel was a member of the scientific directory board of the IBFI Schloss Dagstuhl. From 1996 to 2007 he was spokesperson of the section “Complexity” of the German Gesellschaft für Informatik (GI), the German Society for Computer Sciences. He was ? and is ? a member of various scientific directory boards as well as international program committees and hosted various international symposia and conferences. From 2006 to 2008 he was a member of the AG5 “High-tech Strategies for the Information Society” of the national German IT-summits. Since 2009 he is a member of the AG2 “Digital Infrastructures as Enablers”. He is a board member of MINT-EC e.V., a German network of excellence amongst German schools and collages regarding math and science. In addition, he belongs to the scientific board of SnT (formely LIASIT) at the University of Luxembourg and to the advisory board of the SAP/Meraka Unit for Technology Development in South Africa. From 1999 to 2002 he was chairman of the association “Initiative der Service- und Softwareanbieter” of Rheinland-Pfalz. Since 2007, Christoph Meinel is chairman of the German IPv6 Council. His internationally patented high-security solution “Lock Keeper” is licensed by the Siemens AG. His innovative tele-TASK system is a mobile system to record lectures or presentations and spread them via the Internet. The system is already being used by several universities across the world. Noteworthy is also his recently developed Tele-Board system which supports creative design work of distributed teams.
