Prestigious Computing Publication Honors Tableau Founders' Original Research
Posted by Elissa Fink on November 3, 2008
Tableau Software was recently honored by the computer science publication, Communications of the ACM (CACM). 50,000+ members of the ACM (Association for Computing Machinery) just received the November issue featuring a research paper by Chris Stolte, Diane Tang and Pat Hanrahan. Titled "Polaris: A System for Query, Analysis, and Visualization of Multidimensional Databases", it's about their invention Polaris, now called VizQL, the founding technology under Tableau Software. It also includes a foreword by Jim Gray, a pioneer, legend and brilliant mind in computer science. Jim Gray’s name may sound familiar; he’s the computer scientist who unfortunately went missing off the San Francisco Bay 2 years ago. Pat Hanrahan's recent blog entry describes how important Jim was to his and Chris's research.
