    Heinz-Hermann Adam is the managing director of IVV Naturwissenschaften at the University of Münster. He is responsible for a large part of the university IT system that supports scientists, students, and employees in the fields of biology, chemistry, pharmacy, and physics in their daily work. With around 12,000 users and 6,000 mostly Windows-based systems, a wide variety of application software is key to getting the best "business results". Dr. Adam has particular expertise in the integration of heterogeneous IT systems since using OpenVMS Pathworks / Advanced Server as the center of a Windows NT domain. The transparent integration of Windows, Unix, and Macintosh for the simultaneous, efficient use of resources is the current task that arises in day-to-day operations. Before taking up his current position, Adam studied physics at the University of Münster and the Research Center Jülich and has worked in various IT-related positions at the University of Münster and elsewhere since 1995. He has been a member of German user associations since 1996 and regularly lectures at conferences.
