Welcome,
to my small home page, which is as much a "work page" as it is a home page. It mainly spins around moving forward on foot. And - which a "home" page ought do - around my home town. So, under the topic "Karlsruhe" there is a subjective and unbalanced introduction to the city and its history, partly related to the three (or four) pedestrian topics.
I live and work in Karlsruhe as a product manager for PTV Group with a focus on the simulation of pedestrian dynamics. If "Karlsruhe", "product manager", and/or "simulation of pedestrians" creates nothing but question-marks in your mind, you're lucky, as this is exactly what the following pages will deal with.
