The research activities of the group are oriented mainly in three directions:

1) Theoretical and application-oriented aspects of visual formalisms for databases and information visualization;
2) Design and performance modelling of parallel and distributed database systems;
3) Database modeling, cooperative information systems, data integration, data warehouses and data mining, semi-structured data modeling, data             quality, e-services and web-services.

Besides several publication in international journals and conferences, the Database and Interface group has also implemented several prototypes of visual interfaces for database access, such as QBD* and QBI, which have been transformed into industrial products by an italian software company.
 

The main research topics are: 

    • Visual Query Languages and Interfaces;
    • Databases and the Web;
    • Heterogeneous and Cooperative Database Systems;
    • 2D and 3D Data Visualization;
    • Adaptive Interfaces;
    • Visual Metaphors;
    • Controlled Studies and Usability Testing;
    • Query Language Expressive Power;
    • Information Visualization;
    • Data Modeling;
    • Data Warehousing;
    • Parallel Database Systems;
    • Query Optimization;
    • Workflow Management Systems;
    • Semi-structured Data;
    • Data Integration;
    • Data Quality;
    • E-services;
    • Web-services.
