Data management systems, cloud services, probabilistic databases, and data pricing in Computer Science & Engineering at the University of Washington in Seattle.
The University of Washington's database group aims at broadening the focus of database and data management techniques beyond their traditional scope. We do both theoretical and systems work in areas such as probabilistic databases, stream processing, sensor-based monitoring, databases and the web, XML, image/video data management, data management for machine learning, ubiquitous computing, data integration, and data mining.
Remy Wang received a runner up award for the 2024 Jim Gray SIGMOD Dissertation Award. Congratulations Remy!
