SIGMOD Anthology Editor's Message
-
As you read this report, the CDROMs of volumes 2, 3 and 4 of the ACM
SIGMOD Anthology should be in production. For the most recent
information check
http://www.acm.org/sigmod/dblp/db/anthology.html
or
http://www.informatik.uni-trier.de/~ley/db/anthology.html
- The bibliographic records of the DBLP server are available in an
XML-style format; you may download them from
ftp://ftp.informatik.uni-trier.de/pub/users/Ley/bib/records.tar.gz
The records look like
<article key="AgrawalS93">

The outer tag is the record type: like in BibTeX the record types are
``article'' for a journal paper, ``inproceedings'' for a conference
paper, ``book'', ``proceedings'', ``incollection'', etc. The second
level tags are the field types. Most fields have the same semantics
as in BibTeX, new fields are:
<url> points to the position of the
publication in a table of contents HTML page
<ee>
points to an ``electronic edition'' (citation) page
<cite> is a citation link
(DBLP-ID of the cited publication), or '...' for references
not (yet) covered by DBLP.
You may use the DBLP records as a test or example data set for your
software as it was done in the (award winning!) SIGMOD 2000 paper by
H. Liefke and D. Suciu or may create new services based on
the information provided by DBLP.
- DBLP now contains more than 100,000 citation links for database
publications. The Web page
http://www.informatik.uni-trier.de/~ley/db/about/top.html
shows the most frequently cited DB publications.
The slides shown in Dallas are available on
