Focus Topics of Research
The design and implementation of scalable, robust, and energy-efficient database systems for the analysis of large data sets (big data platforms); design of algorithms and efficient data structures to exploit modern hardware infrastructures (e.g. in-memory computing, disaggregated and hyperconverged infrastructures, non-standard computing devices...); principles of inquiry and analysis methods of very large and (semi-)structured document corpora (mainly web contents) are amongst our research focuses. Research projects are receiving third-party funding by the German Research Foundation (DFG), Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF), Federal Ministry for Transport and Digital (BMDV), and the EU amongst others.
