Christian Timmerer’s Summary
Christian Timmerer received his M.Sc. (Dipl.-Ing.) in January 2003 and his Ph.D. (Dr.techn.) in June 2006 (for research on the adaptation of scalable multimedia content in streaming and constraint environments) both from the Klagenfurt University. He joined the Klagenfurt University in 1999 and is currently a Assistant Professor (Ass.-Prof.) at the Department of Information Technology (ITEC) – Multimedia Communication Group where he also chairs the IT administration group. At the university, he has been working on coding-format agnostic resource adaptation within the MPEG-21 Multimedia Framework. Other research interests include the transport of multimedia content, multimedia adaptation in constrained and streaming environments, distributed multimedia adaptation, and Quality of Service / Quality of Experience.
He has published more than 40 papers (incl. book chapters and tutorials) in these areas and he has been a chair of the “Special Session on UMA (WIAMIS 2006) and the “Workshop on End-to-End QoS for UMA” (AXMEDIS2006). Furthermore, he was the general chair of WIAMIS 2008. He has been actively participating in several EC-funded projects, notably the FP6-IST-DANAE (2004-2006), FP6-IST-ENTHRONE (2006-2008), and FP7-ICT-P2P-Next (2008-2012) projects. For the FP6-IST-ENTHRONE, he serves as a work package leader and chairs the End-to-End QoS Management Committee. Additionally, he has been appointed as an expert member of the FP6-IST-AXMEDIS User Group and as an external expert board member for the same project. Furthermore, he participated in the work of ISO/MPEG for several years, notably as the head of the Austrian delegation, coordinator of several core experiments, co-chair of several ad-hoc groups, and as an editor for Parts 7 and 8 of MPEG-21, Digital Item Adaptation and Reference Software for which he received ISO/IEC certificates.
