Gabor Drescher

Dr. Gabor Drescher is a Researcher at the Department of Computer Science 4 (Distributed Systems and Operating Systems) at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg. He holds a Dr.-Ing. (PhD) in Computer Science from FAU, where he has been a member of the research staff since 2012. His work focuses on operating systems for many-core architectures, real-time systems, parallel computing, and security mechanisms in distributed environments.

Education:

• 2007–2010: Bachelor of Science in Computer Science, FAU
• 2010–2012: Master of Science with Honors in Computer Science, FAU
• 2021: Dr.-Ing. in Computer Science (PhD), FAU

Research interests include:

• LAOS (Latency-Aware Operating Systems)
• Non-blocking synchronization algorithms
• Invasive Runtime Support Systems (iRTSS)
• Kernel-level security and encryption (e.g., RamCrypt)
• Custom OS design for many-core processors

Teaching includes courses on operating systems, concurrent systems, and configurable system software engineering. He has supervised multiple student theses on topics like NUMA-aware memory distribution and kernel-level security mechanisms.

His research contributes to improving the scalability and predictability of operating systems in many-core environments, with applications in embedded real-time systems and high-performance computing.
