Short papers should present initial results or work in progress on any topic of interest to SBBD. As with full papers, they may be classified as: (i) Regular Research Papers, (ii) Vision Papers, or (iii) Industrial or Application Papers. Submissions must be written in Portuguese or English and must not exceed 7 pages, following the SBC template. Important: page 7 is considered an extra page and must be used exclusively for references (i.e., up to 6 pages of content plus one page only for references).
The use of generative AI tools (such as LLMs) must be explicitly declared by the authors at submission time, briefly indicating their purpose (e.g., language revision, assistance with text structuring, generation of examples). Full responsibility for the content remains with the human authors, including the verification of all bibliographic references. By submitting papers to SBBD 2026, authors acknowledge that they are in compliance with the SBC Code of Conduct for Authors.
Short papers submitted to SBBD must not be simultaneously submitted to any other forum (conference or journal) and must not have been previously published elsewhere. Acceptance of a paper implies that at least one of its authors must register for the symposium to present it. Submissions are made via JEMS and will undergo double-blind peer review, in which the identities of both authors and reviewers are concealed. Therefore, authors must omit any information that could identify authorship in the submitted paper. Papers will be evaluated based on originality, relevance, technical soundness, and clarity. Industrial or application papers will also be evaluated based on their innovation potential.
Questions regarding short paper submissions should be directed to monteiro@dc.ufc.br (José Maria da Silva Monteiro Filho).
Accepted papers will be published in the SBC Open Lib, the SBC digital library, in the Proceedings of the Brazilian Symposium on Databases series (ISSN 2763-8979). All papers will be assigned a DOI.
