Partner 3: INRIA / OAK team

 

InriaEstablished in 1967, Inria is the only public research body fully dedicated to computational sciences.

Combining computer sciences with mathematics, Inria’s 3500 researchers strive to invent the digital technologies of the future. Educated at leading international universities, they creatively integrate basic research with applied research and dedicate themselves to solving real problems, collaborating with the main players in public and private research in France and abroad and transferring the fruits of their work to innovative companies.

Inria researchers published over 4,850 articles in 2011. They are behind over 270 active patents and 105 start-ups. In 2011, Inria’s budget came to 265.2 million euros, 30% of which represented its own resources.

Inria will intervene via the OAK team.

The OAK team belongs to the Inria Saclay center, and is associated between Inria and the LRI (the Computer Science Laboratory of the University Paris-Sud). The OAK team research focuses on database optimizations and architectures for complex large data. The team was created in 2012 and has since acquired top visibility in the national and international data management community, in particular through publications in top venues such as ACM SIGMOD 2012, PVLDB 2012, ACM Transactions on Database Systems (TODS) 2013 (three publications), the Very Large Database Journal (VLDBJ), the IEEE International Conference on Data Engineering etc.; the team is strongly involved in the LabEx (“Laboratoire d’Excellence”) DigiCosme as well as  the recently labeled Institut de la Société Numérique” (ISN) within the Paris-Saclay IDEX (“Initiative d’Excellence”), to which the other partners of this project also participate.
