Christian Derksen

Christian Derksen is a scientific assistant at the Faculty of Computer Science, University of Duisburg-Essen. He is affiliated with the ICB/Informatik department and actively involved in the SOFTEC team and IoT Lab cooperation. His research focuses on smart energy systems, multi-agent based simulation, and hybrid energy infrastructures, integrating engineering, economics, and computer science.

Research Trends: Derksen's work emphasizes agent-based modeling for energy systems, smart grid development, and hybrid network simulation. His recent articles explore topics like energy conservation law applications, cross-domain resource allocation, and standardized control frameworks for decentralized energy networks.

Advising: Supervised two theses in 2024: one on machine learning for energy models and another on cross-platform user interfaces for decentralized energy management systems. His methodological contributions include the Energy Option Model (EOM) and Agent.GUI simulation framework for hybrid energy systems and networks.
