icalp-topic-selection

separate

Use when deciding whether a theoretical computer science result belongs at ICALP (EATCS) and, if so, whether it is a Track A (algorithms, complexity, games) or Track B (automata, logic, semantics, theory of programming) paper, and when distinguishing ICALP from the US theory venues STOC, FOCS, and SODA or from a TCS journal by contribution shape, community, and the LIPIcs open-access model.

When to use

• Deciding if a result belongs at ICALP
• Selecting between Track A and Track B
• Distinguishing ICALP from STOC, FOCS, and SODA
• Distinguishing ICALP from TCS journals
• Evaluating contribution shape for ICALP
• Applying re-route tests for venue selection
• Performing cheap reconnaissance before committing

When not to use

• Papers whose real deliverable is a system
• Papers with benchmark results and no new theorem
• Papers with applications and no new theorem
• Experimental-algorithms, database, or systems venues
