The BRAZILIAN SYMPOSIUM ON DATABASES (SBBD) is the official event on databases of the Brazilian Computer Society (SBC) and the largest venue in Latin America. It is a forum for the presentation and discussion of important and recent topics in the SBBD area, bringing together students, researchers, professionals, vendors, government, and society in general to promote the dissemination of research and innovation results.

Along with technical and demo (tools) sessions and relevant workshops, the symposium includes invited talks, tutorials, and mini-courses given by distinguished speakers from the national and international data management research community. It covers issues in data management, database and information systems, data science, data engineering, big data, and other related topics in the light of considering data as a technological cornerstone of emerging applications

For the 2024 edition, SBBD will accept full, short, and disseminated papers and JIDM regular papers for presentation. Full and short papers must be high-quality, original, and previously unpublished submissions in data management theory, technology, or practice. SBBD invites full and short papers according to the following categories.

RESEARCH: Scientific papers with contributions to the research in SBBD.

VISIONVision papers should present new problems, application domains, or methodologies likely to stimulate significant new research and discussions. Vision papers are supposed to convince the audience that the idea is valid and worth listening to without presenting completed research work and validated results.

INDUSTRIAL or APPLICATION: SBBD welcomes novel real-world applications of data management systems and experience in applying recent research advances to real-world problems. Real-world problems may arise from the Industry, Society, Government, Scientific Community, or other companies.

SBBD also welcomes submissions on interdisciplinary work if there are clear contributions to data management.

Full Papers

Submissions in this category should present research results and discuss any SBBD topics of interest. There are three equally important categories of full papers: (i) Regular Research Papers, (ii) Vision Papers, and (iii) Industrial or Application Papers..

Complete articles must be written in Portuguese or English and not exceed 12 pages, according to the SBC template. These articles must not have been submitted simultaneously to any other forum (conference or magazine) nor have they already been published in another vehicle. Acceptance of an article implies that at least one person of its authorship registers for the symposium to present it. Works must be submitted within the deadline via the JEMS website.

Submitted articles will go through a double-blind review processdouble-blind, where authorship identities are hidden from those who review the articles and vice versa (those who write do not know who reviews). Articles will be reviewed based on originality, relevance, technical soundness and clarity of presentation. Industrial or application articles will be reviewed based on context and innovation potential.

Full SBBD articles will have a two-round review process for articles considered borderline, where those who wrote them will be able to see a version of the revisions and write a response (rebuttal) to defend their article in relation to the comments received. In this response, you can propose making some small changes to correct problems in the article to generate a final (camera-ready) version.

Questions regarding the submission of the FULL paper should be directed to eogasawara@ieee.org.

Important dates:

• Abstracts due: May 6, 2024 – May 27, 2024
• Submissions due: May 13, 2024 – June 3, 2024
• Notification: June 17, 2024 – July 10, 2024

Full Papers – Extra Submission in Support of Authors from Rio Grande do Sul

In these challenging times, our hearts are with the people of Rio Grande do Sul, who are facing an unprecedented climatic tragedy. We at SBBD stand in solidarity with the community, understanding the gravity of this moment. To support our fellow researchers and authors from Rio Grande do Sul during this difficult period, we are extending the submission deadlines for full paper authors from Rio Grande do Sul. Our thoughts are with everyone affected, and we hope this small gesture can help alleviate some of the pressures faced by those impacted.

Questions regarding the submission for this call should be directed to eogasawara@ieee.org.

Important dates:

• Abstracts due: July 1, 2024
• Submissions due: July 8, 2024

Submissions

Short Papers

Short papers should present initial results or ongoing work on any SBBD topics of interest.

Similar to full papers, papers may be (i) regular research papers, (ii) vision papers, or (iii) industrial or application papers..

Short SBBD articles must be written in Portuguese or English, as required. SBC template. Short articles submitted to SBBD must not have been submitted simultaneously to any other forum (conference or magazine) nor have they already been published elsewhere. Acceptance of an article implies that at least one person of its authorship registers for the symposium to present it. Works must be submitted within the deadline via the JEMS website.

Traditionally, short SBBD articles have a total of six pages, which, in some cases, considering the SBC article model, may leave little space left to describe the idea in more detail, even in the case of articles that present initial results or work in progress. For the 2024 edition, we have something new: short articles may have an extra page reserved for references. In other words, authors will be able to write their articles on six pages and the seventh page must contain exclusively bibliographic references In this process of constructing references to be cited, we recommend that authors seek to contextualize their work in relation to works published in previous editions of the event, if relevant.

Submitted articles will go through a double-blind review process, where the authorship identities are hidden from those who review the articles and vice versa (those who write do not know who reviews them). Articles will be reviewed based on originality, relevance, technical soundness and clarity of presentation. Industrial or application articles will be reviewed based on context and innovation potential.

Questions regarding the submission of the SHORT paper should be directed to cesp@dsc.ufcg.edu.br.

Important dates:

• Abstracts due: June 17, 2024 – July 12, 2024
• Submissions due: June 24, 2024 – July 12, 2024

• Deve-se indicar os tópicos de interesse do SBBD 2024 cobertos pelo artigo.
• In the introduction, 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 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 that 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 articles must clearly describe the scientific methodology used and present the analysis or discussion of the results, highlighting the contributions of research and innovation and, for a given area of application, positioning it in relation to other works in the area. The results must be described objectively, relating them to the problem and research objectives. It is also expected to point out the limitations of the research and future work.
• 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.
• As for the review phase, full and short articles submitted to SBBD 2024 will go through a “double-blind” review process. Therefore, to guarantee the anonymity of authorship, the following must be at least done: (i) the names and affiliations of the authors must not appear on the title page or anywhere else in the article; (ii) self-references should be limited only to articles that are relevant to those reviewing the submitted article, and the third person should be used to refer to work that the authors have done previously, e.g. replacing any phrases such as “how we showed it before” with “…it was shown before [Author 2020]”; (iii) when explicit self-citation is necessary, the list of references must be hidden: ‘[Author 2007] Details omitted for double-blind review.’; and (iv) funding sources, members of research groups or other colleagues or collaborators should not be mentioned anywhere in the article.

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