Dr. Sebastian Wahle joined the Next Generation Network Infrastructure department at Fraunhofer FOKUS in Berlin, Germany in 2005. Since then, he served as a project manager leading the research & development activities of several industry and publicly funded research projects. In 2009, he established the Evolving Infrastructure and Services group at Fraunhofer FOKUS. The group is active in a number of national and international research projects in the field of Future Internet and supports commercial Fraunhofer Next Generation Network (NGN) testbed deployments at customer’s premises worldwide.

Since 2011, Sebastian is responsible for the Machine-to-Machine (M2M) Business Development and heads the OpenMTC group at Fraunhofer FOKUS that is currently building a generic M2M platform enabling services across multiple vertical application domains. 

His main expertise is in the field of service- and resource-oriented architectures, distributed communication and computing systems, as well as software development and project management in highly agile environments. Sebastian received both a diploma and Ph.D. degree in Industrial Engineering and Management from the Technische Universität Berlin.

Dipl. Inf. Konrad Campowsky graduated at Technical University Berlin in 2009, specializing in Operating Systems Design and Software Engineering. In 2008 he joined the NGNI competence center at Fraunhofer FOKUS, where he designed and implemented a system for testbed management and federation, which was also the topic of his Diploma thesis and was subsequently used as a management backend in the context of the Panlab II project.

After having contributed to several EU funded projects in the field of cloud federation and testbed federation, Konrad joined the M2M group at Fraunhofer FOKUS in 2012 where he currently coordinates the technical development of the OpenMTC software.

Dipl.-Ing. Hakan Coşkun received his Dipl.-Ing. in 2003 from the Technische Universität Berlin. In the same year he joined the TU Berlin as researcher, working in European and international projects related to next-generation networks, distributed network management, autonomic networking and IPv6 networks. His main research interests are convergence of NGN and Future Internet, M2M communication, autonomic communication systems, virtualization in wireless networks, and self-management of IPv6 Networks.
