Best Performer and Teaching Awards 2024/2025

We congratulate David Jamnig BSc., who works as a study assistant in our Software Engineering Research Group, on receiving the Best Performer Award 2024/2025 and a Teaching Award in the category “Best Tutorium”.

Best Performer Awards

The Best Performer Award is given to the best students in the technical degree programs at the University of Klagenfurt. The ECTS credits and grades of all assessments of one academic year were taken into account to evaluate academic performance. David Jamnig performed best in the Master’s degree program “Informatics” in the academic year 2024/2025.

The University of Klagenfurt held the award ceremony on November 5, 2025, as part of the “University meets Industry: Talents for Carinthia” event. The prizes for the Best Performer Award winners, each amounting to 500 euros, were donated by the Förderverein Technische Fakultät (FTF) and the Faculty of Technical Sciences and presented by Michael Kollienz from Raiffeisenbank Kärnten and Chairman of the FTF, and Prof. Bernhard Rinner, Vice Dean of the Faculty of Technical Sciences.

Teaching Award

Moreover, the Teaching Award was given to David for his efforts in assisting students in his tutorials for example on Software Engineering. All Teaching Awards across different categories were presented to the winners at a celebratory ceremony on November 19, 2025.

We share the happiness with David on his achievements as we strongly value him as a member of our team.  Furthermore we are pleased to continue working with him.

Änderungen in Microservice-basierten Systemen analysieren

In der Informatik kann man große, komplexe Anwendungen als ein monolithisches System entwickeln, oder diese in kleine, skalierbare Komponenten unterteilen, die über Standardprotokolle miteinander zusammenarbeiten. In der Internet-Cloud werden diese kleinen Komponenten oft als Microservices realisiert. In einem neuen Forschungsprojekt, gefördert von der österreichischen Forschungsförderungsgesellschaft, will man genauer verstehen, wie sich Änderungen in einem einzelnen Microservice auf andere Microservices und die gesamte Anwendung auswirken.
