Research Focus
My ambition is to unlock the full potential of data, by providing sustainable methods for online analytics. Online analytics comes with strict performance requirements: the results need to be made available almost instantaneously, to allow for interactivity. Sustainability, on the other hand, refers to different properties of the desired solutions: (a) low cost, (b) scalability with the data size and velocity, (c) ease of use at different situations. I have key contributions towards this direction, by building (a) easy-to-use data synopses that allow efficient compact summarization and analytics, and, (b) streaming algorithms, that facilitate processing of the data at line speed.
