About

It's me!

Tammo van Lessen is an independent consultant in SOA/BPM and PhD student with Prof. Frank Leymann at the Institute of Architecture of Application Systems at the University of Stuttgart. His research interests are in the areas WS-*, SOA and BPM. He participated in the EU funded SUPER project. He holds a "Dipl.-Inf." degree in Computer Science (Software Engineering) from the University of Stuttgart, Germany. Besides his research work he actively participates in Open Source and does stuff he can't explain his grandpa.
