The Extreme Data Lab is part of the Computer Science Department at The National Laboratory of Scientific Computing. In cooperation with various institutes in Brazil and abroad it aims at exploring data management, representation and analysis techniques to support scientific applications. Currently, the Lab takes part in projects in Astronomy, Bio-Chemistry, Sports, Bioinformatics and Ecology. Our strength is in formal data representation, distributed and parallel query processing and data analysis. The Lab develops software prototypes intended to be used by the target scientific community, of which QEF is the most advanced example.
