The ACM Symposium on Principles of Database Systems (PODS) is an international research conference on database theory, and has been held yearly since 1982. It is sponsored by three Association for Computing Machinery SIGs, SIGAI, SIGACT, and SIGMOD. Since 1991, PODS has been held jointly with the ACM SIGMOD Conference, a research conference on systems aspects of data management.
PODS is regarded as one of the top conferences in the area of database theory and data algorithms. It holds the highest rating of A* in the CORE2021 ranking . The conference typically accepts between 20 and 40 papers each year, with acceptance rates fluctuating between 25% and 35%.
Database theory encapsulates a broad range of topics related to the study and research of the theoretical realm of databases and database management systems.
ACM SIGACT or SIGACT is the Association for Computing Machinery Special Interest Group on Algorithms and Computation Theory, whose purpose is support of research in theoretical computer science. It was founded in 1968 by Patrick C. Fischer.
