IT Responsibles

The primary task of the HIH IT responsibles is to provide a well-functioning computer infrastructure to all employees of the Institute, so that the scientific work is optimally supported. Service includes giving direct support in case of usage problems and supporting the scientists and other members of the institute in solving more specialized IT problems. 

We accompany the scientific work from experiment and network design, soft- and hardware development, data acquisition and storage via data analysis and simulation to publication and finally archiving. We always try to find new solutions to challenging information-processing related problems in order to create a cost effective information-technical environment that enables the HIH employees to work efficiently, to handle their data in a safe way and to easily be connected to where it is necessary.
