I was born in Ticino (the southern part of Switzerland where people speak Italian) in 1974. I lived there until 1993 when I moved to Zürich to study computer science at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology.

After graduation I joined the Laboratory for Software Technology under the supervision of Prof. Thomas Gross to work in the field of compiler construction. I defended my thesis Approximating the Worst-Case Execution Time of Soft Real-Time Applications in March 2005.

After working for three month as as a compiler engineer at Freescale Semiconductor in Schlieren, Zürich, Switzerland I joined in November 2005 the Information and Communication Services of the ETH Zurich.

Since May 2008 I am head of the Web Applications and Identity Management group of the Information and Communication Services of the ETH Zurich.

Since October 2010 I moved to Bern.

Thanks I was hoping for a quicker solution but it's already better then the "move to" solution: the overview with the file sizes is surely a nice addition.

comment How to explicitly password-lock an iPhone regardless of timeout setting?
No: if the settings are to require a passcode after a certain time the phone will not be locked.
