The VLDB Journal

期刊简介：The journal is dedicated to the publication of scholarly contributions in areas of data management such as database system technology and information systems, including their architectures and applications. Further, the journal’s scope is restricted to areas of data management that are covered by the combined expertise of the journal’s editorial board.Submissions with a substantial theory component are welcome, but the VLDB Journal expects such submissions also to embody a systems component.In relation to data mining, the journal will handle submissions where systems issues play a significant role. Factors that we use to determine whether a data mining paper is within scope include:The submission targets systems issues in relation to data mining, e.g., by covering integration with a database engine or with other data management functionality.The submission’s contributions build on (rather than simply cite) work already published in database outlets, e.g., VLDBJ, ACM TODS, PVLDB, ACM SIGMOD, IEEE ICDE, EDBT.The journal's editorial board has the necessary expertise on the submission's topic.Traditional, stand-alone data mining papers that lack the above or similar characteristics are out of scope for this journal. Criteria similar to the above are applied to submission from other areas, e.g., information retrieval and geographical information systems.

【译文】该期刊致力于发表关于数据管理领域的学术贡献，如数据库系统技术和信息系统，包括它们的架构和应用。此外，该期刊的范围仅限于由期刊编辑委员会的联合专业知识所涵盖的数据管理领域。欢迎具有实质性理论成分的投稿，但VLDB期刊也期望此类投稿体现系统组件。在数据挖掘方面，该期刊将处理系统中问题起重要作用的投稿。我们用来确定数据挖掘论文是否在范围内的因素包括：投稿针对数据挖掘的相关系统问题，例如通过涵盖与数据库引擎或其他数据管理功能的集成。投稿的贡献建立在（而不仅仅是引用）已发表在数据库出版物上的工作之上，例如VLDBJ、ACM TODS、PVLDB、ACM SIGMOD、IEEE ICDE、EDBT。期刊的编辑委员会对其投稿主题具有必要的专业知识。缺乏上述或类似特征的传统独立数据挖掘论文不适用于本期刊。对来自其他领域的投稿也应用类似的标准，例如信息检索和地理信息系统。
