Congrats marcin.zukowski with the Dijkstra Fellowship Award for your groundbreaking work on database architecture! "I hope he will continue to build new technologies, teams and products, because he's great at it", CWI group leader Peter Boncz said in his laudation speech.




134 participants from 22 countries visited EKAW Conference this week, hosted by group leader Laura Hollink. We look back at an insightful event on knowledge management, with talks, workshops, posters & demos and an excellent vibe👍. Great to see people from so many countries 🌍!
