Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolRiccardo Tommasini is an Associate Professor at INSA Lyon and a researcher in the DB Team at LIRIS, specializing in stream processing, knowledge graphs, and query/programming languages with 11 years of experience. He holds a PhD from Politecnico di Milano where his dissertation “Velocity on the Web” (soon a Springer book) explored real-time web data dynamics and expressive, efficient stream reasoning. Riccardo has combined academic leadership—from leading the Data Systems Group at University of Tartu ad-interim—to applied collaborations with industry and government, including NIIS projects on X-ROAD and a JCJC ANR grant for multimodal, polyglot stream processing. He supervises PhD students working on big graph processing and co-supervises cross-institutional work on heterogeneous graph systems, reflecting a blend of deep theory and practical systems engineering. Fluent in turning semantic-web techniques into deployable solutions, he brings a rare focus on velocity-aware reasoning that bridges high expressivity and runtime performance.
