This framework has become highly popular and is employed by an increasing number of users including Coursera, Twitter, Github, Pinterest, and Medium. The framework includes a new graph query language which has been specified informally only. We have embarked on the formalization and the study of this language. In the talk I will provide an overview of the GraphQL framework and of the results of our work.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><b class="">Mini bio</b></div><div class="">Olaf is an Assistant Professor in Computer Science at Linköping University, Sweden.

Olaf's research interests are in problems related to the management of data and databases. His focus in this broad context is on data on the Web (Semantic Web and Linked Data, in particular) and on graph data, as well as on problems in which the data is distributed over multiple, autonomous and/or heterogeneous sources. Regarding all of these topics, Olaf's interests range from systems-building related research (e.g., efficient storage of datasets and databases, query processing, and query optimization) all the way to theoretical foundations (e.g., complexity and expressive power of query languages).</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div></div></div></blockquote></div><br class=""></div></body></html>
