Benchmarking Intel SGXv2, Foundation Database Models

WikiDBs, LOP, ELEET

We are offering a new lecture: Foundations of Modern Data Systems (taught by Prof. Istvan and Prof. Binnig)

We are proud to share that our recent paper “LLMs for Data Engineering on Enterprise Data” has won the Best Short Paper award of the Tabular Data Analysis Workshop at VLDB'24. Whereas recent studies are optimistic about the use of LLMs for data engineering tasks, we show that LLMs still display severe limitations when faced with real-world usage scenarios like enterprise data.

LLMs for Data Engineering on Enterprise Data

Results from a lab course organized by the Systems group are supporting polar research

The Alfred Wegener Institute Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research (AWI) operates aircraft to explore the Arctic and Antarctic. Students of computer science and cognitive science have developed software in the software development project as part of their bachelor's degree programme at TU Darmstadt that will make it easier to plan these flights in future.
