Adopted August 14, 2002
Amended October 22, 2003
- Selection of the invited SIGMOD papers will be done by the SIGMOD 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 SIGMOD 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 SIGMOD submission.
- There will be an accelerated review and resubmission schedule with the
goal of having the papers appear together not too distant from the
original conference.

SIGMOD Program Chair forwards nominated papers to TODS EiC

| April 15 |
TODS EiC invites submissions, due October 1

| October 1 |
Receive submission
|
| February | First review completed, taking four months |
| May | Second submission, within three months of receiving the review |
| August | Second review completed, taking three months |
| September | Final revision, within a month of the review |
| December | 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. It is hoped that the December
issue will be a joint SIGMOD/PODS special issue/section.
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.
- The special issue (or special section of this issue) may include a
short foreword by the SIGMOD PC chair, perhaps jointly authored
by the PODS PC chair.
