Besides the CVLBA board members, including Ann Rosenberg, Prof. Dr. Gerhard Schwabe, and Dr. Bernd Welz, an impressive number of SAP professionals joined the presentations and discussed the research projects, their progress and benefit for SAP.
Dr. Oliver Kroneisen (SAP, Vice President, COO LoB Finance) summarized the annual meeting as follows:
"I am impressed and feel inspired by the great scientific research I have seen ... great work that will improve the way how large and complex systems with high availability can be provided. The event also clearly showed how fruitful the collaboration between researchers and practitioners at SAP is."
Participants of the annual CVLBA Meeting 2014
I want to use the opportunity to thank SAP for hosting us and all participants for the fruitful discussions. I am sure that this was a great platform for all of us to discuss the practical implications of our research. I am looking forward to an intersting year with intensive discussions with our SAP mentors and experts.
