Authors of accepted papers must register and present their papers during the conference.

Considering the topics of interest of SBBD (solely or together), the authors of papers submitted to the conference should follow these recommendations:

  • The papers must clearly highlight the context of the reported research.
  • Authors must indicate the topics of interest to SBBD 2023.
  • In the introduction, be sure to highlight the motivation for the work, the research problem, the general and specific objectives, the contribution, and its scientific originality, presenting the justification and relevance of the work.
  • SBBD papers must position the work presented concerning related works published in the specialized literature, showing the need for a new approach, the improvement of an existing one, or even the application of data management in real problems. Some suggestions of journals and scientific events in the area, which can serve as a basis for the research are (non-exhaustive list): SBBD, JIDM, KDMile, VLDB, SIGMOD, EDBT, ICDE, CIDR,  Journal of Information Systems, Decision Support Systems, Journal of Information Sciences.
  • SBBD papers must clearly describe the scientific methodology employed as well as present the analysis or discussion of the results, highlighting the contributions of the research and innovation and, for a given application area, positioning it regarding other works in the area. Authors must describe the results objectively, relating to the problem and research objectives. The limitations of the research and future work are also expected to be pointed out.
  • Please, review the text according to the language used and the formatting. The text must be carefully reviewed concerning its wording, and must be clear, objective, and contain no language errors. Format your paper according to the SBC paper template, and review citation and reference formats. Figures and tables must be legible.
  • Regarding the reviewing phase, papers submitted to SBBD 2023 that will undergo a ”double-blind” reviewing process (full and short papers) should ensure the anonymity of authorship. Authors must at least do the following: (i) authors’ names and affiliations must not appear on the title page or elsewhere in the paper; (ii) self-references should be limited only to papers that are relevant for those reviewing the submitted paper, and the third person should be used to refer to work the authors have previously undertaken, e.g., replace any phrases like “as we have shown before” with “… has been shown before [Author 2020]”; (iii) when explicit self-citation is needed, the reference list should be blinded:  ‘[Author 2007] Details omitted for double-blind reviewing.’; and (iv) funding sources, research group members, or other colleagues or collaborators, must not be acknowledged anywhere in the paper. The objective is to allow the reader to fully comprehend the context of the submitted paper while preserving anonymity. It is the responsibility of authors to do their best to preserve anonymity. Papers that do not follow the guidelines, or otherwise disclose the identity of the authors, are subject to instant rejection.
  • Please, review the text according to the language used and the formatting. The text must be carefully reviewed concerning its wording, and must be clear, objective, and contain no language errors. Format your paper according to the SBC paper template (https://www.sbc.org.br/documentos-da-sbc/category/169-templates-para-artigos-e-capitulos-de-livros), and review citation and reference formats. Figures and tables must be legible.

We suggest all full papers to make their code, data, scripts, and notebooks available if this is possible. Although it is not mandatory for acceptance, providing this extra material can help reviewers evaluate your work more thoroughly.
