User:Rainer Typke

I am Rainer Typke, a computer scientist working in the Netherlands and soon in Vienna, Austria (this is my homepage).

I completed a MSc at the Universität Karlsruhe, Germany, in 1999. From 1999 until 2003 I worked as a consultant for Accenture, mainly on electronic trading platforms. In 2003, I started working on a PhD in music information retrieval at the Universiteit Utrecht, the Netherlands. This should be finished in about 2 months, which might somewhat limit my CZ editing activities in the next couple of weeks.

My research has been mainly on music information retrieval, but also on software engineering.
