My research targets building scalable and integrated data-driven systems. Recently, I have started working on data management in video games and simulations at the Cornell Database Group, an area in which scalability is a primary concern. During my PhD at the ETH Zurich Systems Group, I have worked on the iMeMex Dataspace Management System, a hybrid information integration architecture that allows users to transition from search to data integration in a pay-as-you-go fashion.
