Project Students (Master-level)
In HPI's Masters program, we are looking for students with both exceptional grades and experience in software development in order to drive projects with our industry partners. Prospective students should have a strong interest in working on applied computer science problems directly with our partners. This particular approach to project work supports students in building relationships with potential employers: many of our previous project student assignments have led to (international) internships and job offers. Project students are welcome to engage in any of the following activities:
- High-Performance In-Memory Genome Project For details about the project, please refer to the project page or contact Dr. Matthieu Schapranow.
- HYRISE HYRISE is an open-source hybrid row/column in-memory database engine written in C++. If you are interested to contribute to this project or to perform measurements and experiments in the context of in-memory data management research, please contact David Schwalb or Markus Dreseler.
- Real-Time Stream Processing The area of real-time data stream processing is becoming more important in the light of developments towards trends like Internet of Things (IoT). In that context, we aim to compare different systems and concepts, which can include research in the area of performance benchmarks. If you are interested in this topic or similar ones, please contact Guenter Hesse.
For more information about our ongoing projects, have a look at our projects website. We are able to compensate students on an individual basis depending on experience and the particular industry project they will be working on. Please contact Dr. Matthias Uflacker for details.
