SIGMOD investigates the development and application of database technology to support the full range of data management needs. The scope of interests and members is wide with an almost equal mix of people from industryand academia. SIGMOD sponsors an annual conference that is regarded as one of the most important in the field, particularly for practitioners.Areas of Special Interest:Active and temporal data management, data mining and models, database programming languages, databases on the WWW, distributed data management, engineering, federated multi-database and mobile management, query processing & optimization, rapid application development tools, spatial data management, user interfaces.

IMULATION: Transactions of The Society for Modeling and Simulation International is a fully peer reviewed international journal that publishes original research and review articles devoted to theory and applications, all with clear relevance to general modeling and simulation issues.In addition to building the knowledge base in theory, methodology and technology, the journal also aims to help professionals and researchers (particularly those involved in multidisciplinary projects) apply advances in modeling and simulation to their application areas.

ranslating Life Sciences Innovation: SLAS Technology explores ways in which scientists adapt advancements in technology for scientific exploration and experimentation.

SLAS Technology emphasizes scientific and technical advances that enable and improve life sciences research and development; drug-delivery; diagnostics; biomedical and molecular imaging; and personalized and precision medicine. This includes high-throughput and other laboratory automation technologies; micro/nanotechnologies; analytical, separation and quantitative techniques; synthetic chemistry and biology; informatics (data analysis, statistics, bio, genomic and chemoinformatics); and more.

SLAS Technology is of particular interest to those involved in automation, bioengineering, micro- and nanotechnology, nanomedicine, microfluidics, 3D printing, biotechnology, bioinformatics, analytical chemistry, biomedical optics, information technology, artificial intelligence, spectroscopy, clinical diagnostics, pharmacogenomics, molecular biology and biomedical sciences.

SLAS Technology is a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) and was published previously (1996-2016) as the Journal of Laboratory Automation (JALA).

SLEEP is a monthly peer-reviewed scientific and medical journal featuring a wide spectrum of sleep-related research. The journal is the official publication of the Associated Professional Sleep Societies, LLC (APSS), a joint venture of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine and the Sleep Research Society.The primary audiences are clinicians and research professionals specializing in sleep-related disorders. SLEEP publishes 12 regular issues annually, along with a digital supplement featuring abstracts presented at the yearly SLEEP Meeting of the Associated Professional Sleep Societies. Subscribers have access to all new and archived issued online. All articles are available to the public free of charge six months after publication.Sleep specialists treat a broad spectrum of disorders, categorized into primary dysfunction of the neural mechanisms of sleep and arousal, pathologies uniquely related to sleep and disturbances of sleep associated with behavioral or psychiatric syndromes. Experts come from a variety of primary backgrounds, including pulmonology, neurology, psychiatry, psychology, otolaryngology, and dentistry.SLEEP publishes original findings and analysis related to sleep disorders, medical dysfunctions during sleep, clinical investigations, therapeutic trials, physiologic events, anatomic structures and molecular components underlying normal and abnormal sleep, psychological and psychophysiologic research, and the pharmacology of sleep.
