focs-experiments
From the author
Use when deciding whether and how computation appears in a FOCS (IEEE Symposium on Foundations of Computer Science) paper — a venue that accepts on theorems with no evaluation section expected — covering machine-verified case analyses, computer-discovered constructions, and honest illustrative plots.

- stoc-experimentsbrycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-SkillsUse when judging whether computation belongs in a STOC (ACM Symposium on Theory of Computing) paper at all — STOC accepts on theorems, with no empirical-evaluation expectation — and when it does, scoping it as certified proof computation, constructive search, or clearly labeled illustration rather than benchmarking.Media★ 1.3K
- itcs-experimentsbrycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-SkillsUse when deciding what counts as evidence for an ITCS theory claim — proofs as the primary evidence, worked examples and separations that make a model concrete, and the rare, well-scoped illustrative computation or simulation — and how to keep any computational content checkable and subordinate to the mathematics.Media★ 1.3K
- colt-experimentsbrycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-SkillsUse when deciding whether a COLT (Conference on Learning Theory) paper needs numerical content at all — COLT has no experiments requirement — and, when numerics genuinely help, designing small illustrative simulations that visualize a proved bound, a separation, or a phase transition without diluting the theory.Media★ 1.3K
- focs-workflowbrycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-SkillsUse when planning a FOCS (IEEE Symposium on Foundations of Computer Science) cycle end to end — working backward from the April 1 deadline, managing the live post-submission summer of the 2026 cycle, coordinating with the STOC beat, preparing the November conference, and scheduling a FOCS 2027 attempt.Productivity★ 1.3K
- podc-experimentsbrycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-SkillsUse when building the evidence for an ACM PODC paper — where "evidence" is a proof, not a benchmark. Covers matching upper and lower bounds, tightness arguments, model and assumption stress-tests, adversary-strength calibration, and the honest, clearly-optional role of any simulation in a distributed-computing-theory paper.Testing★ 1.3K
- uist-experimentsbrycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-SkillsUse when designing or auditing the evaluation of a UIST paper — choosing among technical benchmarks, controlled comparisons, usability walkthroughs, expert sessions, and demonstration applications, matching evaluation shape to the systems claim, and avoiding the ritual study that proves nothing the paper asserts.Science★ 1.3K
