  From  Webster's  Revised  Unabridged  Dictionary  (1913)  [web1913]:

  From  Jargon  File  (4.2.3,  23  NOV  2000)  [jargon]: 
 
  SIG  /sig/  n.  (also  common  as  a  prefix  in  combining  forms)  A 
  Special  Interest  Group  in  one  of  several  technical  areas,  sponsored 
  by  the  Association  for  Computing  Machinery;  well-known  ones  include 
  SIGPLAN  (the  Special  Interest  Group  on  Programming  Languages),  SIGARCH 
  (the  Special  Interest  Group  for  Computer  Architecture)  and  SIGGRAPH  (the 
  Special  Interest  Group  for  Computer  Graphics).  Hackers,  not  surprisingly, 
  like  to  overextend  this  naming  convention  to  less  formal  associations 
  like  SIGBEER  (at  ACM  conferences)  and  SIGFOOD  (at  University  of  Illinois).
