SIGMOD Record is a quartely publication of the Special Interest Group
on Management of Data (SIGMOD)
of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM). SIGMOD is dedicated to the study,
development, and application of database and information
technology. The June issue each year is the Proceedings of the SIGMOD
Conference. The current and past issues are made available on-line as
SIGMOD Record - Web Edition at http://www.sigmod.org/record/.
SIGMOD Record solicits contributions of articles, technical notes,
reports, and proposals for special sections. Conference announcements
and calls for papers are publised if relevant to the interests of the
group and, in most cases, are limited to one page. All contributions
should be sent to the editor for consideration. Submitted technical
papers are reviewed for importance and correctness. Priority is given
to papers that deal with current issues of interest to a broad
audience.
Papers should be submitted electronically in PDF format through the
SIGMOD RECord Electronic Submission System (RECESS) at
http://db.cs.pitt.edu/recess
and they should follow a format similar to that of the
SIGMOD conference proceedings (but with a larger
font): 10 point font,
single-spaced, 2-column, 8.5'' by 11'' page size with 1'' margins
all around and no page numbers. They should also be formatted for
letter size pages and must contain all fonts embedded. Submitted
articles are limited to 6 pages unless prior agreement with the Editor.
