Academic profile

I am an Assistant Professor at the Department of Software Engineering, Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, Charles University. My research focuses on methods for representing, integrating, transforming, evolving, and querying heterogeneous data, with particular emphasis on multi-model and polyglot database systems, workload-aware physical design, schema inference, and automated data-management tooling.

Research interests: Database systems · multi-model data · schema evolution · data migration · query processing

Principles of Data Organisation

Thursday 12:20-13:50 · S1

The aim of the course is to provide an overview of the basic principles of data organization. In the first part, students get acquainted with the basic methods of data storage and file organization types. We will also focus on data structures for efficient access to data, i.e. basic types of hashing and hierarchical indexing, including their use in traditional, primarily relational database systems. In the last part, we will focus on more advanced principles of data organization in the context of spatial, distributed and in-memory databases
