CV Klaus Haller

Klaus Haller studied at the Department of Computer Science of the Technical University of Kaiserslautern from 1995-2000. In 1999, he stayed for around three months at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, PA. Furthermore, he took additional law classes at FernUniversit in Hagen.

In 2000, he joined the database research group of the Department of Computer Science at the Swiss Federal Institute of Zurich (ETH) as a Ph.D. student. His research focused on a peer-to-peer-based implementation of transactional guarantees for processes. Klaus also holdes a degree as Betriebswirt(IWW) of the Institut für Wirtschaftswissenschaftliche Forschung und Weiterbildung of FernUniversität Hagen.

Since the completion of this Ph.D. in 2005, Klaus works mainly as a consultant for the banking industry. Important assignments were in the areas of process engineering, data migration and test data management. Furthermore, e was being responsible for the database backend of a credit risk application with most business logic residing inside the database. He worked in business development where he was responsible for a customer survey with bank customers in the area of commercial credits and for developing concepts for IT products for credit departments in banks.
