CALL FOR PAPERS 1991 ACM SIGMOD International Conference on Management of Data May 29 - May 31, 1991 Denver, Colorado The 1991 ACM-SIGMOD Conference will bring together researchers, practitioners, and users to explore the expanding role of database management systems. The conference will provide a forum for original research contributions to practical system design, implementation, and evaluation. The conference will feature a number of half-day tutorials, panel sessions, videos, and exhibits of commercially available systems and experimental research prototypes. The conference will also offer a program in which vendors will present database issues important to industry. This year, the SIGMOD Conference will be held jointly with the Tenth ACM SIGACT-SIGMOD-SIGART Symposium on Principles of Database Systems (PODS). There will be one registration process for all attendees. Papers will be presented in parallel with the PODS papers, but there will be separate SIGMOD and PODS proceedings. The program committees for the two conferences are also separate and authors must decide to which conference they will submit. Theoretical papers are appropriate for PODS and applied ones for SIGMOD. The same paper (or different versions of the same paper) may not be submitted to SIGMOD and PODS simultaneously. TOPICS Major topics of interest include, but are not limited to: Extensible Database Systems Object-Oriented Database Systems Optimization Techniques Design Databases Query Languages Benchmarks Database Programming Languages High Performance Systems Logical & Physical Database Design Parallel Architectures Access Methods Workstation-Based Architectures Concurrency Control and Recovery Heterogeneous Database Systems Distributed Systems Interactive Database Interfaces Integrity & Security Techniques Advanced Applications PAPER SUBMISSION Six copies of a 5000-word manuscript should be submitted by December 7, 1990 to: Roger King, Department of Computer Science Campus Box 430, University of Colorado Boulder, Colorado 80309-0430 USA buzz@boulder.colorado.edu We strongly encourage submission of papers from countries outside North America. Request for partial travel funds may be addressed to the European or Asian Coordinator. PANELS, TUTORIALS, and VIDEOS Each panel or tutorial proposal should include a one-page description of the subject matter, the name of the organizer, and, for panels, a list of proposed panelists. Video submissions should be full-length (5 to 20 minutes), submitted in VHS-NTSC format (standard VHS format in North America), and accompanied by a project/system description of 500 to 1,000 words to appear in the proceedings. Submissions should be made to Goetz Graefe (graefe@boulder.colorado.edu) at the same address given for paper submissions. INDUSTRIAL PROGRAM There will be a series of sessions focussed on industrial problems, research developments, current and near-term problems for industry, and results that advance the state of the art or practice in the database area. Presentation proposals should include a title, the name of the presenter, and a two-page description of the topic and its significance to industry. Submissions should be made to: Craig Thompson, Texas Instruments, Inc P.O.
