Last year, two master students of the University of Applied Science Cologne at Gummersbach, Andre Kasper and Jan Philipp, have been co-supervized by Dr. Andreas Behrend in our group. Recently, during the Linux Days 2010, their thesis entitled "Visualizing the Dependencies of Database Objects" has been awarded the Univention Absolventenpreis 2010 for outstanding software highly relevant for enterprises and universities working on the analysis of databases. Congratulations to Andre and Jan (as well as to Andreas Behrend and Prof. Heide Faeskorn-Woyke who supervized the two students at Cologne-Gummersbach. We plan to continue this successful cooperation!

On April 28, 2010, Prof. Manthey has been awarded the "Wusel Award" by the students council in informatics for his efforts in teaching and promoting studying conditions over many years (cf. to the resp. news page of the institute).
