Miksch, Silvia
Silvia Miksch studied Information Systems (Economic Computer Science) at the | University of Vienna and the |Vienna University of Technology with concentration on Applied Statistics and Artificial Intelligence. I received my master of Social and Economic Science from the University of Vienna in 1987 and my Ph.D. in 1990. Afterwards I joined the | Knowledge-Based Systems Group at the Austrian Research Institute for Artificial Intelligence (OFAI), as scientific researcher. I was a Postdoctoral Fellow within the Adaptive Intelligent Systems group of the |Knowledge Systems Laboratory which in turn is part of the Computer Science Department at | Stanford University, CA, USA (August 1995 - August 1996, FWF-Erwin Schrödinger post-graduate fellowship). In October 1996, I joined the | Institute of Software Technology and Interactive Systems (ISIS), |Vienna University of Technology. Since November 1999, I am Associate Professor.
