About the authors
Christian Haas received his diploma degree in Computer Science from the University of Karlsruhe in 2008 and his doctoral degree from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) in 2014. Between 2008 and 2015 he was a researcher at the Institute of Telematics at KIT where he participated in several projects for the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) and the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF). In 2014, he worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the competence center for applied security technologies (KASTEL). Since 2015, he has been working as the group manager of a research group on Industrial Cybersecurity at Fraunhofer IOSB in Karlsruhe. His research interests are network security, wireless sensor networks and security for industrial production systems.
Georg Bretthauer obtained the Dipl.-Ing., Dr.-Ing., and Dr.-Ing. habil. degrees in Automatic Control at the University of Technology, Dresden in 1970, 1977, and 1983, respectively. From 1997 to 2015 he was a full professor for Applied Computer Sciences and Automatic Control and the Head of the Institute of Applied Computer Sciences and Automatic Control (AIA) at the University of Karlsruhe and the Head of the Institute of Applied Computer Sciences (IAI) at the Karlsruhe Research Center (now KIT). From 2002 to 2018 he was the Editor-in-Chief of the journal ‘‘Automatisierungstechnik – at’’. His research interests include identifcation, automation, mechatronics, and artifcial intelligence.
Jürgen Beyerer has been full professor for informatics at the Institute for Anthropomatics and Robotics at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) since March 2004 and director of the Fraunhofer Institute of Optronics, System Technologies and Image Exploitation IOSB in Ettlingen, Karlsruhe, Ilmenau, Görlitz, Lemgo, Oberkochen and Rostock.
