Andreas Zeller

I am a full professor at Universität des Saarlandes in Saarbrücken, Germany. My broad research area is software engineering, which concerns the construction and evolution of large, complex software systems at reasonable cost and high reliability. My research in this area concerns the analysis of these systems, especially the analysis of why these systems fail to work as they should.

If you are at the University, please meet me in my office in Building E1 3, Room 303. Official appointment hour (»Sprechstunde«) is Monday 2-3pm, but my office is normally open for visitors all day long.

Here are some pointers to frequently asked resources:

• For projects and publications, check out my resume.
• If you want to meet me, my travel plans can be helpful.
• The chair page holds all information about research, courses, and staff.
• The AskIgor automated debugging services are now additionally available as an open source command-line tool.
• Zeller's Clock is a 25-minute countdown inspired by Michael Ernst's Countdown. This can be run by session chairs during a talk on a laptop facing the speaker, so the speaker always knows how much time is remaining. (The name "Zeller's Clock" was not coined by me, but by the participants of a Dagstuhl seminar where it was first used.)
• First Eclipse plugins for automated debugging are now available for download.
• On popular demand, I have made available the LaTeX style I use for my presentations (short intro). Now in version 1.1!.
• Here are some general tips on giving research talks (in german).
• And last but not least, here are the directions to my home.
