Mohan Yang
I am currently a software engineer at Google working on F1.
I obtained my Ph.D. in Computer Science from UCLA in 2017, working in the Scalable Analytics Institute (ScAi) with Professor Carlo Zaniolo.
Before that, I received my Bachelor's degree from the ACM Honored Class, Shanghai Jiao Tong University in June 2010.

- Deductive Application Language System (DeALS),
a new Datalog system that (i) supports classical Datalog constructs including stratified aggregates, negation and XY-stratification,
and the new monotonic aggregates that can be used in recursive rules;
and (ii) optimizes parallel execution over diverse platforms including multi-core machines and
clusters.
It enables the efficient support of complex data analytics pipelines that consist of relational and/or graph data processing workloads in a single declarative language.
