Stanford University

He was a visiting professor at Stanford University in the 1980s and 1990s.

Scientific Research

Some of the research projects he has been responsible of at Politecnico di Milano include W3I3: "Web-Based Intelligent Information Infrastructures" (1998–2000), WebSI: "Data Centric Web Services Integrator" (2002–2004), SeCo: Search Computing (2008–2013), GenData2020: Data-Centric Genomic Computing (2013–2016), and GeCo: Genomic Computing (2016-2021).

He received two European Research Council Advanced Grants, in 2008 for the Search Computing project and in 2016 for the Genomic Computing project.

His research interests are focused on:

  • extending database technologies for incorporating data distribution, deductive rules, active rules, and query languages for XML
  • methods and languages for the specification of data-intensive Web sites, such as WebML
  • search computing and crowd searching methods
  • genomic computing

    • WebML inventor

    He is one of the inventors of WebML, a modeling language for the conceptual design of web applications (US Patent 6,591,271, July 2003) and he is one of the co-founders of WebRatio, a spinoff of Politecnico di Milano whose mission is to promote and commercialize development tools based on WebML and model-driven development in general (spanning Interaction Flow Modeling Language, BPMN, and Unified Modeling Language).

    Alta Scuola Politecnica

    Until November 2013, he was director of Alta Scuola Politecnica.

    Awards

  • 1991 - VLDB Best Paper Award in 1991.
  • 2000 - VLDB Test of Time Award in 2000.
  • 2013 - ACM SIGMOD Edward F. Codd Innovations Award: During his ACM-Sigmod talk, he explained the "Seven Golden Rules for being Successful in Research". They are: (1) Invest in education, (2) Choose the right co-workers, (3) Take context into account when choosing your research agenda, (4) Write!, (5) Diversify your research, (6) Learn from other disciplines, (7) Don't always work.
