Thomas Neumann (born 1977[3]) is a German computer scientist and full professor for Data Science and Engineering at the Technical University of Munich (TUM).[4]
Education and career
[edit | edit source]Thomas Neumann finished his studies in business informatics, at the University of Mannheim in 2001.[1] He received his doctor's degree in computer science under the supervision of Guido Moerkotte, in 2005,[2] and then worked as a senior researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Computer Science in Saarbrücken, with Gerhard Weikum. During this time, Neumann developed RDF-3X,[5] a system for graph databases. He habilitated in 2010 at Saarland University.[3] In the same year, he joined the group for database systems at TUM under Alfons Kemper as associate professor.[3] In 2017, he became a full professor for Data Science and Engineering, also at TUM.[1]
Research
[edit | edit source]His research areas are query optimisation and efficient query processing by just-in-time compilation.[6] As part of this research, he developed the main memory database system HyPer, which was sold to Tableau Software in 2016,[7] and its successor system Umbra.[8] He was awarded the Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Prize by the German Research Foundation for his work on HyPer.[1]
