Individual skill
icde-related-work
Use when positioning an IEEE ICDE submission against the database canon and neighboring venues, running a reinvention audit across SIGMOD, VLDB, EDBT, and shipping systems, handling two-round concurrency, distinguishing engineering delta from genuine novelty, and covering both the literature and production systems an ICDE reviewer expects.

# ICDE Related Work
Use this to audit novelty and eligibility. Reopen the current call for the original-work and
prior-publication rules before advising authors.
## Positioning checks
- Separate **genuine novelty** (a new mechanism, access method, protocol, or primitive) from
**engineering delta** (a faster implementation of a known idea). ICDE rewards the former;
the latter needs an unusually strong evaluation to survive.
- Run a **reinvention audit** against the deep database canon. Because data management has a
fifty-year literature, a "new" index or join often has a 1980s or 1990s ancestor; find it and
state the difference, or a reviewer will.
- Cover **both** the research venues **and shipping systems**. ICDE reviewers expect you to know
