Modeling and Analysis of Complex Systems
Henning Meyerhenke is Professor of Computer Science at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) since April 2025. Prior to that, he was Professor at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin and University of Cologne as well as Assistant Professor at KIT. After obtaining his PhD degree from the University of Paderborn, Henning held postdoctoral positions at Georgia Institute of Technology (Atlanta, USA), NEC Laboratories Europe, and University of Paderborn.
Henning’s research interests concern scalable discrete algorithms for real-world problems in large and complex networked systems. Together with his co-authors, he received the Best Algorithms Paper Award at the 22nd IEEE International Parallel and Distributed Processing Symposium and the Best Paper Award of the 2015 International Symposium on Foundations and Applications of Big Data Analytics. His group contributes to FONDA by its extensive experience in parallel and distributed algorithms, in particular for applied combinatorial optimization (scheduling & load balancing, process mapping) and graph analysis.
Henning Meyerhenke a is principal investigator in subproject B1.
