Josef Widder received his M.Sc. (Diplomingenieur) and his Ph.D. (Doctor technicae) in Computer Science from Vienna University of Technology in 2002 and 2004. Since 2003 he is member of the Embedded Computing Systems group at TU Vienna's Institute of Computer Engineering where he currently holds the position of an Assistant Professor. From May 2007 to April 2009 he worked as PostDoc at the Laboratoire d'Informatique de l'Ecole polytechnique (LIX), Palaiseau, France.

His research focuses on the theoretical approach to distributed algorithms, that is, correctness, impossibility, and complexity analysis. Areas of interest are problems posed by faults and the asynchrony in distributed systems.
