Dense co-authorship network formed by the review board members of a conference may adversely impact the quality and integrity of the review process. In this report, we shed light on the topological characteristics of such networks for three major data management conference venues. Our results show all these venues give rise to dense networks with a large giant component. We advocate to rethink the traditional way review boards are formed to mitigate the emergence of dense networks.

我们的会议审查委员会有多紧密联系？

由会议审查委员会成员组成的密集的共同作者网络可能会对审查过程的质量和完整性产生不利影响。在本报告中，我们阐明了三个主要数据管理会议场所的此类网络的拓扑特征。我们的结果表明，所有这些场所都产生了具有大型巨型组件的密集网络。我们提倡重新思考审查委员会的传统组成方式，以减轻密集网络的出现。
