Hermann+Kaindl

an Austrian computer scientist, games researcher and since 2003 full professor at the Vienna University of Technology, where he already defended his Ph.D. under supervision of Wilhelm Barth. Kaindl was senior consultant with the division of program and systems engineering at [|Siemens AG] [|Austria]. Concurrently to his work in the industry, Kaindl has given lectures in computer science at the Technical University of Vienna since 1984, where he received the [|venia docendi] in applied computer science ([|Praktische Informatik]) in 1989.
