Special Interest Group Totally Explained

Everything about Special Interest Group totally explained

This article is about computer associations. For political advocates, see interest group. In the computer field, a Special Interest Group (SIG) is a community with a particular interest in a specific technical area. SIGs exist for the fields of computing architecture, graphics, security, etc. Members of a SIG cooperate to effect or to produce solutions within their particular field, and often meet regularly, particularly at computing conferences.
In other fields SIGs may be sub-organizations within a larger group, which allow individuals interested in a smaller area, possibly irrelevant to the main group, to meet others who share their particular concerns, without generating the feeling that the purpose of the parent organization is being subverted.
