Andreas Harth is professor of technical information systems at the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg in Germany. He worked as a post-doctoral researcher at Institute AIFB at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) in Germany after pursuing a Ph.D. at the Digital Enterprise Research Institute (DERI) at the National University of Ireland, Galway.

His research interests are large-scale data interoperation on the Semantic Web, Linked Data, knowledge representation, computational logic and user interaction on web data. Andreas has published several dozen papers in these areas, and is author of a number of open source software systems. Recently, he has become interested in (RESTful) architectures for cyber-physical systems (e.g., smart energy grids, surgery systems, mixed-reality systems).

Andreas has successfully carried out numerous European and national projects and participated in the W3C Semantic Web Best Practices and Deployment, Rules Interchange Format and Spatial Data on the Web working groups. In addition, he served as program committee member of numerous conferences and was one of the co-organisers of the Consuming Linked Data (COLD) workshop series and of the Semantic Web Challenge. He served as general chair of ESWC 2020, a major venue for discussing the latest scientific results and technology innovations around semantic technologies.
