SIGMOD Topic Selection & Paper Routing
Evaluates database research projects for fit across SIGMOD, PVLDB, PODS, and related venues to prevent desk rejections.
SIGMOD Topic Selection helps database researchers, systems engineers, and academic authors determine the optimal publication track for their work. It provides diagnostic frameworks to distinguish core data-management contributions from database-assisted applications, evaluates paper readiness between SIGMOD's quarterly PACMMOD rounds and PVLDB's monthly rolling model, and helps route projects appropriately to research, industrial, theory (PODS), or architecture (CIDR) tracks.
Key Features
01Compares submission timelines and review mechanics between SIGMOD and PVLDB
02Guides routing across specialized venues including PODS, ICDE, KDD, CIDR, and TODS
031,090 GitHub stars
04Differentiates novel academic research requirements from industrial deployment tracks
05Evaluates core data-management contributions versus database-adjacent applications
06Generates structured fit verdicts with primitive identification and time-to-verdict comparisons
Use Cases
01Choosing between quarterly SIGMOD PACMMOD deadlines and PVLDB's monthly rolling submissions
02Deconstructing multi-faceted research projects into separate research, industrial, and theoretical papers
03Assessing whether a systems or ML-adjacent project has sufficient data-management novelty for SIGMOD
