Javier D. Fernández was a member of the CSH Faculty from 2017 to 2019, and a postdoctoral research fellow under an Austrian Science Fund (FWF) Lise-Meitner grant at the Vienna University of Economics and Business (WU Wien). He holds a PhD in Computer Science by the University of Valladolid (Spain) and the University of Chile (Chile), performing this double diploma thanks to an Erasmus Mundus grant.

Javier’s thesis addressed efficient management of Big Semantic Data, proposing a binary RDF representation for scalable publishing, exchanging and consumption in the Web of Data. Before joining CSH and WU, he worked at the Ontology Engineering Group (OEG) at Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (Spain), and the Dipartimento di Ingegneria Informatica Automatica e Gestionale at Sapienza Università di Roma (Italy). His current research focuses on efficient Linked Data access, RDF streaming, archiving and querying dynamic Linked Data.
