Dan Suciu is a full professor of computer science at the University of Washington.
After graduation, he was a principal member of the technical staff at AT&T Labs until he joined the University of Washington in 2000.
His work on XMill,[4] an XML compressor, won the best paper award at SIGMOD 2000, the main research conference in data management, and was seminal to a substantial amount of follow-up work.
At the 2010 Symposium on Principles of Database Systems, Suciu and his co-authors Victor Vianu and Tova Milo won the Alberto O. Mendelzon Test-of-Time Award for their work ten years prior on type checking for XML transformation languages.
[6] His current work on probabilistic databases was at the outset of a revival of interest in this area.
