Social/Volunteer Organizations

I’m a member of DECUS in Germany since 1996. I started Co-Chairing the Windows-SIG in 2003 being part of the program committee for the Symposium and resigned only to become a member of the DECUS board in 2005. I was elected to be president changing the organization to be Connect Germany aka Chapter #1. In 2009 I was asked to fill a vacant position on the Connect Worldwide board.
During my studies at the University of Münster I was on the editorial board of the department's magazine, participated in mostly non-IT related committees at the department and university level. Introducing and establishing the lectures surveys, was one of my most widely acknowledged projects.
I was also involved in an association for handicapped people, who wanted to learn windsurfing. It was founded and run by a friend of mine, who was a windsurfer himself and became blind. He supported blind, deaf, spastic or leg amputated people both financially and organizationally to learn windsurfing. |

More Information |
Dr. Heinz-Hermann Adam is Technical Director of the Natural Sciences Department (NSD) at the University of Münster, Germany. He oversees a major part of the universities IT environment, serving scientists, students and staff of the Biology, Chemistry and Physics departments. With roughly 10,000 users and 3,000 - 4,000, mainly Windows based systems, applications are key to achieve the best results in daily "business".
Besides commercially available applications, software development mainly in Fortran and C/C++, aimed at solving scientific problems with computational tools, consumes a large part of the compute capacity in both large scale and distributed systems.
To provide applications and other resources from servers to desktops, NSD relies heavily on virtualization techniques at the hardware and software level.
Dr. Adam has special expertise in integrating heterogenous IT systems since the days of OpenVMS Pathworks/Advanced Server at the center of a Windows domain. The transparent integration of Windows, Unix and Mac is nower days the main issue to make efficient use of storage capacity.
