Tobias Bühler

I finished my PhD in March 2023.

My research focuses on network measurements to improve the observability of large networks. In the past, I worked on the EU Horizon 2020 MAMI project with Mirja Kühlewind and Brian Trammell.

In addition, I was heavily involved in the Communication Networks lecture as head teaching assistant.

Before starting my PhD, I earned my bachelor as well as master degree in electrical engineering and information technology from ETH Zürich.
