I was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina. I received a BA degree in Civil Engineering from the University of Buenos Aires, and BA in Computer Science from the same university. I worked as a civil engineer in environmental projects from 1984 to 1994. In 2001 I got my PhD in Computer Science from the University of Buenos Aires. My PhD thesis studied updates and time management in OLAP. I have been teaching at the University of Buenos Aires from 1987. I have been an invited professor at the Universidad Politecnica de Madrid in 1997. In 1998 I joined the Systems Division at the Universidad de Belgrano , Buenos Aires (with a DBA position), where in 2001 I was appointed vice-dean of the School of Engineering and Information Technology. In 2003 I joined the University of Toronto as a posdoctoral fellow, and lecturing the Data Management Systems course.
After that, I returned to the University of Buenos Aires, lecturing the courses on Fundamentals
of Data Warehousing and Database
Systems, and as Vice-Head of the Department of Computer Science, and Chair of
