International Summer Day

Prof. Felix Breitenecker

Felix Breitenecker studied  ‘Applied Mathematics’ at Vienna University of Technology (VUT), finishing with Master of Technical Sciences (Dipl.-Ing.) in 1976 and graduated (Dr.techn. ) with a thesis in Mathematics of Control.in 1979. From 1976 on he worked as researcher  at the VUT Mathematics of Control and Simulation Group, from 1984 on as associate professor (Simulation and Mathematics of Control), and since 1995 as professor for Mathematical Modelling and Simulation“ at VUT. He is teaching as guest professor at University Glasgow, at University Clausthal-Zellerfeld, University Ljubljana,. and Univ. Linz, Technical University Odessa, and University Pristina

He is active in various modelling and simulation societies: president and past president of EUROSIM since 1992, board member and president of the German Simulation Society ASIM, member of INFORMS, SCS, UKSIM, etc. In 2004 he has been elected into the executive board of GI, the German Gesellschaft für Informatik. In 2001 he received as first European the Distinguished Service Award of INFORMS, the OR Society of USA.
He has organised and co-organised the European Simulation Congress Vienna (1995), ASIM conferences in Vienna, the conference series MATHMOD in Vienna, and Simulation Workshops in UK, Germany and Austria.

Felix Breitenecker covers a relatively broad research area, from mathematical modelling to simulator development, from discrete event simulation to symbolic computation, from numerical mathematics to object-oriented simulation implementation, from biomedical and mechanical simulation to workflow and process simulation.

He is involved in various national and international research projects and he is active in industry projects, e.g. with Daimler-Chrysler and EADS. In co-operation with ARCs, the Austrian Research Center Seibersdorf, he takes part on research and industry projects in biomedical engineering and in process engineering.

He has published about 250 scientific publications, and he is author of two 3 books and editor of 22 books (Proceedings and Series). Since 1992 he is editing the journal Simulation News Europe, Editor in Chief since 1995, and he is co-editor of the SCS Series ‘Frontiers in Simulation’ and ‘Advances in Simulation’. Furthermore, he is member of the editorial of some journals on modelling and simulation.
