Adopted September 16, 2002
- Selection of the invited EDBT papers will be done by the EDBT PC chair,
on the bases of high quality and perceived feasibility of being extended
into submissions to TODS. A minimum of 0 and a maximum of 4 papers will
be selected for invitation.
- The TODS EiC will then invite submission of extended versions
of the selected papers, or a subset thereof.
Note that TODS requires at least 30% new material. The new material
should be content material, not just the addition of obvious proofs or a
few more straightforward performance figures. (See the
relevant
TODS guidelines for authors).
- These submissions will be reviewed in the normal manner, but reviewers
will be told that the submission was invited upon the recommendation of
the EDBT PC chair. Acceptance is not guaranteed. The editor handling the
paper will be responsible for choosing the reviewers; however, it is
expected that at least two of the reviewers will be ones who reviewed the
original EDBT submission.
- There will be an accelerated review and resubmission schedule with the
goal of having the papers appear before the following incarnation of the
EDBT conference.
| December | Invite submission |
| June | Receive submission, 6 months later |
| October | First review completed, taking four months |
| January | Second submission, within three months of receiving the review |
| May | Second review completed, taking three months |
| June | Final revision, within a month of the review |
| September | Paper appears, with a production of three months |
This is a very tight schedule. Any paper not meeting this schedule can
appear in a subsequent issue.
At some point ACM will adopt a completely online publication
process, in which papers can be "published" (i.e., put on the DL)
as they are accepted. This will allow the schedule to be relaxed.
We expect that all the papers in the issue will be in one
virtual volume.
