About Daniel
- Working on the theory of column-oriented databases, and struggling with some hashing problems.
I’ve been an entrepreneur, a government researcher and a university professor. I once designed, built and sold software for a living. I’ve even designed and sold a music web site. As a researcher, I have worked on many problems: from medical diagnostic to collaborative data processing. I’ve even written research papers in mathematics. Lately, I’ve been mostly active in data warehousing and recommender systems. I love to write: my blog has thousands of followers. I also have two sons, two cats and beautiful wife.
I'm somewhat of a misanthrope and I think I am a bit of a contrarian.
Keywords: Data Warehousing, OLAP, Information Retrieval, Web, Time Series, Collaborative Filtering, e-Learning.
