Last Thursday (Sept. 3), we hosted an NSF BRIDGE & Apache Texera Meetup in Boston during VLDB 2026.
It was a great opportunity to connect with colleagues and exchange ideas about data and compute infrastructure, data science, AI/ML, agents, cloud computing, and open-source systems.
We also had many valuable discussions about how the NSF BRIDGE data cyberinfrastructure and Apache Texera (Incubating) can support scientific communities by making data, computing, and AI capabilities more accessible, and how we can collaborate with researchers and infrastructure projects across different domains.
Many thanks to everyone who joined us and contributed to the discussions. We look forward to continuing these conversations and exploring new research and collaboration opportunities.
If you are interested in collaborating with NSF BRIDGE or Apache Texera, please feel free to reach out!

#Agents+Graph Workshop Keynote Spotlight ๐
Thinking in DAGs: How Humans and Agents Collaborate in Data Science
At the VLDB Agents+Graph Workshop, Chen Li (UC Irvine) will deliver the opening keynote on how DAGs (Directed Acyclic Graphs) provide a natural foundation for human-AI collaboration in modern data science.
Drawing on the vision behind Apache Texera, the talk will discuss how workflow systems enable humans and AI agents to collaborate through intuitive, transparent, and reproducible dataflows.
โจ Human + Agent Collaboration โ keeping humans in the loop while AI agents automate complex analytical workflows
๐ Thinking in DAGs โ why dataflow is a natural interface for both humans and AI agents
๐ก Workflow Systems โ enabling interactive, explainable, and collaborative analytics

We were delighted to host the 2026 Data Science for All (DS4ALL) Summer Program at UC Irvine!
It was the fourth year that UCI and UCLA organized this summer program. Over five intensive and rewarding days, 12 high-school students explored the foundations of data science, artificial intelligence, and machine learning through lectures, hands-on labs, and team projects.
Students learned about data modeling, cleaning, visualization, Python programming, and AI/ML techniques. Using Apache Texera (Incubating), they also gained practical experience building graphical data-analysis workflows through a no-code and low-code approach, culminating in a capstone project showcase.

We were impressed by the studentsโ curiosity, creativity, teamwork, and willingness to tackle challenging problems. It was especially rewarding to see them transform real datasets into meaningful analyses and confidently present their results.
Many thanks to our faculty organizers, instructors, Ph.D. student mentors, staff members, students, and families for making the fourth DS4ALL summer program such a success!
