Education
Hellerstein attended Harvard University from 1986-1990 and pursued his masters in Computer Science at University of California, Berkeley from 1991-1992.
Ph.D Studies and Research
He received his PhD from the University of Wisconsin, Madison in 1995, for a thesis on query optimization supervised by Jeffrey Naughton and Michael Stonebraker. He has made seminal contributions to many areas of database systems, such as ad-hoc sensor networks,[3][4] adaptive query processing,[5] approximate query processing and online aggregation,[6] declarative networking, and data stream processing.[7]
Awards and recognition
His work has been recognized via awards including an Alfred P. Sloan Fellowship, MIT Technology Review's inaugural TR100 list and TR10 list,[8] Fortune 50 smartest in Tech,[9] and three ACM-SIGMOD "Test of Time" awards.[10] He is a Fellow of the Association for Computing Machinery (2009).[11] Key ideas from his research have been incorporated into commercial and open-source database software released by IBM, Oracle Corporation, and PostgreSQL. He has also held industrial posts including Director of Intel Research Labs, and Chief Scientist of Cohera Corporation.
