When the Dreams Come True.
It seems like the fate of my diploma thesis has cleared up at last. More then two months I was looking for the firm and for the project for my last step on the ladder of my study. Ad Hoc Networks excited me during all the years at the university. Quite unexpectedly I found out that our colleagues in Berlin at Fraunhofer FOKUS (Fraunhofer Institut for Open Communication Systems) do research on all the kinds of ad hoc networks. Without hesitation I wrote an email to Berlin. Next day there came an answer from Mr. Radusch. He explained briefly what research works were carried out at their Institut and that there were for sure a topic for me. During my visit to Berlin one week later (I was there at the dancing tournament) we met for half an hour and made a decision that I should describe exactly what I wanted to do and formulate a kind of an abstract about what my diploma thesis were about. I needed some days to think out a project that would be ambitious enough for a diploma thesis. After a while I recieved an answer from Mr. David Linner, the colleague of Mr. Ilja Radusch, who said, that the project I suggested were almost the same as the project he worked on at the moment. I was pleasantly surprised. Now we are trying to clear out with Mr. David Linner how I could contribute to the project and what concrete parts my diploma thesis should consist of.
In this new Blog category, “Ad Hoc Networks”, I’m going to write about the progress of my diploma thesis and to deal with my knowledge and research results on MANets. Because of the contract conditions I can’t tell about all the details. But most of the research work I’ll have to do will be of my own and it will find a reflection in the postings of my IT-Blog.
