interesting open position?
NOMS 2016 Panel on
Managing Hyperconnected Entities - but how?
More and more entities allow remote management. This observation applies within the Network Management (NM) community and outside it. The sphere where the use of NM methodologies and tools can be beneficial expands. Recent examples such as the Internet of Things (IoT), Software Defined Networking (SDN), and Network Function Virtualization (NFV) bring challenges and opportunities to the field. Major challenges are caused by the increased interconnectivity of entities, their increased functional diversity, their increased amount, and their increased protocol heterogeneity. Major opportunities arise by adapting well-understood mechanisms and tools from the NM domain to new applications.
We want to discuss with you, if, why, and how facing new challenges requires adapting and extending existing NM methodologies. We want to discuss which opportunities can be created and which circumstances ideally have to be met. Who provides what, where, in which way, and when in the future?
We are looking forward to discussing about managing hyperconnected entities with you!

Panelists¶
Our panel features a good mix between industry and academia. We all come from different directions. Both can be expected to result in an interesting discussion ;)
Moderation
Marc-Oliver Pahl
In smart spaces, everyone should be enabled to implement management algorithms.
Dr. Marc-Oliver Pahl (pahl [at] tum.de) is a senior researcher and lecturer at Technische Universität München. He joined the chair for Network Architecture and Services in 2008 where he leads the Smart Space Orchestration research activities. His research focuses on novel methods for entity management in dynamic heterogeneous environments such as the Internet of Things.
Marc-Oliver Pahl studied Informatics at the Universität Tübingen with emphasis on computer networks, computer graphics, and media science. He holds a PhD degree from Technische Universität München. Marc-Oliver Pahl is the first author of more than a dozen research papers. He is working as reviewer for different journals and conferences.
Marc-Oliver Pahl teaches at German Universities since 2003. He was among the first to introduce blended learning into the regular student education in Germany. In 2013 he received the Ernst Otto Fischer teaching price of Technische Universität München.
Marc-Oliver is a member of IEEE and ACM. He is currently a member of the IEEE Technical Committee on Factory Automation (TCFA).

Henning Sanneck
Verticals (automotive, industry 4.0) will require customized management (abstraction, reduced complexity) for customized services in a virtualized network infrastructure.
Dr. Henning Sanneck (henning.sanneck [at] nokia.com) studied Electrical Engineering at the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg, Germany. After receiving his Diploma in 1995, he joined GMD Fokus (now part of Fraunhofer) in Berlin. At Fokus, he worked as a Researcher in the area of Quality-of-Service (QoS) support for Real-Time Services in IP-based networks. He received his Dr.-Ing. (PhD) degree in Electrical Engineering from the Technical University of Berlin with a thesis on Voice over IP QoS in 2000.
In 2001 he joined Siemens - Mobile Networks in Munich, as a Senior Research Engineer. He became a Project Manager for technology innovation projects in the area of Network Management for 3G and beyond RANs in 2003, working on Basestation Auto-Configuration and Real-Time Performance Management concepts and their realisation as product features. In 2007, at the formation of Nokia Siemens Networks (now: Nokia Networks), Henning started to lead the "Network Management Automation" team as a Research Manager with a focus on LTE Self-Organizing Networks (SON), in particular Self-Configuration, -Healing and SON Operation. Since 2014, as Head of Cognitive Network Management, his responsibility also includes the internal coordination of Research and Standardization work in Network Management Automation.
Dr. Sanneck has published 70 papers in refereed conferences and journals and has 30 patents granted or published. He is co-editor and -author of the book "LTE Self-Organizing Networks (SON)".
