Distributed and Networked Systems

The Distributed and Networked Systems lab (Verteilte und Vernetzte Systeme in German) is lead by Prof. Zsolt Istvan.
We work in the intersection of several fields, namely: distributed systems, specialized hardware and data management, with the goal of making today's and tomorrow's data-intensive systems more efficient and more secure/private.
Together with the Data and AI Systems lab, we form the Systems@TUDa group.

This website is a work in progress, please see Zsolt's homepage for more information on publications, etc.
