Joerg Rech was born in Tema, Ghana as his father led
several development projects in Africa. After junior high school
and
the technical High School he studied computer science with a minor in
electrical engineering at the Technical University of Kaiserslautern.
Following the successful completion of the study he worked as
scientific assistant for Professor Dieter Rombach at his research group
in Kaiserslautern. At
present he is employed at the Fraunhofer Institut for Experimental
Software Engineering (IESE).
Professional Experience
- Fraunhofer Institute for Experimental Software Engineering (IESE): The Fraunhofer Institute for Experimental Software Engineering (IESE) is involved in research and
development in the areas of software development, software quality- and
software process engineering, software architectures and software
product lines, continuing improvement and learning software
organizations, IT security as well as technology-based learning. The IESE is a bridge between basic research and
the practise. The main objective of the IESE is to
support industrial partners in making quality
improvement a part of everyday practise. My tasks were concerned with research in the range software
engineering, quality assurance, experience management and knowledge management under the direction
of Professor Klaus-Dieter Althoff und Dr. Markus Nick.
- University of Kaiserslautern: The research group „Software Engineering" (AGSE) of Prof. Dieter Rombach at the Technical University of Kaiserslautern is doing basic
research in key software engineering areas. My
responsiblities were the support and execution of exercises and
seminars related to the course "software engineering" as well as
the support of student
work (practical lectures and theses). Parallel to the work with the
research group I cooperated withdepartment of "Systematic Learning and Improvement" (SLI) of the
Fraunhofer Institut for Experimental Software Engineering (IESE).
Teaching Activities
- Stand-in for several hours of the lecture "Experience
Management" („Erfahrungsmanagement - Entwicklung und
Einführung“), lead by Dr. Klaus-Dieter Althoff at the University of Kaiserslautern, Summer 2002
- Support of the lecture „Software Engineering 1:
Fundamentals" and execution of exercises, of Prof. Dieter Rombach
and Prof. Colin Atkinson at the University of Kaiserslautern,
Winter 2001/2002.
- Supervision of the practical course on software engineering ("Weiterentwicklung eines reaktiven eingebetten Systems"), at the University of Kaiserslautern, Summer 2001
- Supervision of the Seminar: "Research Methods in Software Engineering" at the University of Kaiserslautern, Winter 2000/2001.
