Benjamin Sturm

Benjamin Sturm is a postdoctoral researcher at the Chair of Information Infrastructures at the Technical University of Munich. His work focuses on Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT), blockchain systems, and design science research. He has contributed to projects like COOLedger (DLT configuration analysis) and BISE Student (open access thesis platform using blockchain).

Sturm’s research investigates security vulnerabilities in DLT, autonomous agent collaboration, and systematic information retrieval frameworks. His work on DLT design principles and configuration trade-offs has been published in top conferences like ICIS and HICSS. He has developed tools for transparent academic publishing using the bloxberg blockchain and IPFS for decentralized storage.

Key publication trends include DLT security, blockchain configuration challenges, and methodological innovations in design science research. He collaborates with Prof. Ali Sunyaev and researchers like Niclas Kannengießer on DLT applications in cloud computing, autonomous driving, and academic infrastructure. Current projects focus on decentralized knowledge management and robustness in open multi-agent systems.
