SIGMOD

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Redirected from ACM SIGMOD Conference) Jump to: navigation, search

SIGMOD is the Association for Computing Machinery's Special Interest Group on Management of Data, which specializes in large-scale data management problems and databases.

The annual ACM SIGMOD Conference, which began in 1975, is considered one of the most important in the field. While traditionally this conference had always been held within North America, it recently took place in Europe (in 2004) and Asia (in 2007).

In association with SIGACT and SIGART, SIGMOD also sponsors the annual ACM Symposium on Principles of Database Systems (PODS) conference on the theoretical aspects of database systems. PODS began in 1982, and has been held jointly with the SIGMOD conference since 1991.

Each year, the group gives out several awards to contributions to the field of data management. The most important of these is the SIGMOD Edgar F. Codd Innovations Award (named after the computer scientist Edgar F. Codd), which is awarded to "innovative and highly significant contributions of enduring value to the development, understanding, or use of database systems and databases".

 

Very large database

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Redirected from VLDB)   A very large database, or VLDB, is a database that contains an extremely high number of tuples (database rows), or occupies an extremely large physical filesystem storage space. The most common definition of VLDB is a database that occupies more than 1 terabyte or contains several billion rows, although naturally this definition changes over time.

In database research, VLDB commonly refers to the non-profit VLDB Endowment and its annual research conference, International Conference on Very Large Data Bases. The mission of VLDB is to promote and exchange scholarly work in databases and related fields throughout the world. The VLDB conference began in 1975 and is closely associated with SIGMOD and SIGKDD. Acceptance rate of VLDB, averaged from 1993 to 2007, is 16%^[1] and the rate for the Core Database Technology track in VLDB 2009 is 16.7%^[2].
