Bernhard Heinloth

Bernhard Heinloth, M.Sc., is affiliated with the Department of Computer Science (INF) at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU), specifically within Chair of Computer Science 4 (System Software). His research focuses on system software optimization, kernel tailoring for embedded systems, and dynamic software updates. He has contributed to projects like Luci (dynamic shared object updates), Cocoon (on-demand kernel compilation), and Honey (binary library reduction).

Teaching activities include leading exercise sessions for courses such as Betriebsysteme (Operating Systems), Systemnahe Programmierung in C (Low-Level Programming), and Praktikum angewandte Systemsoftwaretechnik (Systems Software Lab). He has advised numerous master's theses on topics ranging from interrupt latency analysis to compiler-based OS optimization.

His publications span academic venues like USENIX ATC, PLOS, and SBESC, with a strong emphasis on practical system software engineering. Current work continues exploring compiler-driven system optimizations and real-time kernel performance.
