SIGCOMM is the Association for Computing Machinery's Special Interest Group on Data Communications, which specializes in the field of communication and computer networks. It is also the name of an annual 'flagship' conference, organized by SIGCOMM, which is considered to be the leading conference in data communications and networking. Known to have an extremely low acceptance rate (~10%), many of the landmark works in Networking and Communications have been published through it.

Of late, a number of workshops related to networking are also co-located with the SIGCOMM conference. These include CHANTS (Workshop on Challenged Networks), INM (Internet Network Management), LSAD (Large Scale Attack Defense) and MineNet (Mining Network Data).

SIGCOMM also produces two refereed journals, Computer Communication Review (which appears quarterly), and IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking, which appears bi-monthly (the latter co-sponsored with IEEE).

The SIGCOMM Award is made annually for outstanding lifetime technical achievement in the fields of data and computer communications.
