We discuss this year's papers in the area of database systems. We focus on papers that appeared on VLDB and SIGMOD 2019. One to two papers (on related topics) are presented in each session. Alternatively, participants may choose to present their own research if it connects to database systems. Each participant is expected to give several presentations over the semester.
Presentations are expected to last 45 minutes (pure presentation time), allowing for ca. 10 minutes of questions throughout and after the talk.
Lunch will be provided before the seminar.
