Summary
Raul Palma is an applied research leader with over 15 years of experience specializing in Semantic Web, ontology engineering, digital preservation and distributed technologies. Based at Poznan Supercomputing and Networking Center, he leads R&D and EU project participation, shaping software architectures, APIs and guiding a team of engineers while also contributing to proposal development. His background spans academic and industry labs across Europe and Latin America, including OEG at UPM, KIT, and Universidad Galileo, where he combined teaching and program leadership with hands-on systems work. Though currently focused on research and project management, he retains strong development skills—especially in Java and Semantic Web stacks (RDF, OWL, SPARQL)—and is known for bridging theoretical models with practical, reusable system designs. An often-overlooked strength is his ability to translate complex provenance and ontology requirements into concrete API and architecture specifications that enable sustainable long-term preservation and linked-data interoperability.
