Dear Friends,
We have just been informed that our Friend and former colleague Jürgen Kammer has just passed away. A mass will be celebrated in his memory on January 19th.
I invite those who have known him to share their memories on wikisita
I joined SITA Paris in June 1978 as an engineer in the Technical Studies department which was then managed by Georges Giraudbit. After developping planning tools for the HLN and later the DTN, I led the design and implementation of the new routing algorithm of the DTN.
Later my team delivered the strategy and specification for migrating the network from airline specific protocols to open standards, and whichalso served for the RFP for the MTN.
After working on developing projects for non-airline customers, I moved to SITA Geneva in 1999, in marketing and later fiance departments.
In 2004 i left SITA to join IATA in Geneva.
With IATA I first worked on launching and developing a new business based on providing credit card payment services to travel agencies. Then I moved to IT, in charge of all data management for successfully.implementing SAP at IATA. Once that project was over I joined the Cargo department at IATA, in charge of Technical developments.
Having worked both at SITA and IATA has been a very unique experience for me!
