Provenance: Writing:Conferences

Back to Conferences. Corpus-wide selection and extraction notes are on corpus. Citations use the shared bibliography; this page adds no keys of its own. No ~~DISCUSSION~~ — comments belong on the content page.

Run record

  • Run date: 2026-08-27 (UTC).
  • Drain item: writing:conferences (improve; 2 TODOs), claimed as cursor-drain-conferences (item 179, run 63). Executed as Cursor, not via claude -p / drain-sandbox.sh. Review model override: all four passes on GPT 5.6 Luna medium (gpt-5.6-luna-medium), not the spec's sonnet/fable split.
  • Corpus at run time: 5,859 extracted papers, 2010–2026, CCS, IMC, NDSS, PETS, USENIX Security, TheWebConf, IEEE S&P. Read-only inputs under /workspace/publications_dataset/data/.
  • Read first: data/extract/OVERVIEW.md, the wiki-measuretheweb spec, live writing:conferences (the 2025 stub with two WRAP todo boxes and a deadline table), literature_review, live start (already linked Conferences), corpus.
  • Target: improve the existing page (not a creation). Neighbouring judgement: do not broaden corpus (funnel) or literature_review (keyword denominators). Do not invent a Writing namespace overview (separate item).
  • No write to the publication mount. Wiki saves through scripts/dw.mjs (JSON-RPC). Live start and literature:bibliography re-exported immediately before any append.

Why this page

The item: update deadlines and add the venues the corpus is missing (EuroS&P, ACSAC, RAID, AsiaCCS, CHI, SOUPS, ConPro/IWPE) with a note on which suit web-measurement work. EuroS&P, ACSAC and AsiaCCS were already in the stub table with stale 2024/2025 URLs. RAID, CHI, SOUPS, ConPro and IWPE were not. The stub's TODOs also asked to organise by topic, add conference-specific writing advice, add engineering venues, and add TWEB.

A reasonable person might have only patched the URL year in the existing table. That would have left the crawl-rate lie in place: the stub's grouping is CORE A* vs A, which puts IMC under WWW and S&P as if rank were the measurement question. The corpus answer is WWW 28.7% crawled, PETS 24.1%, IMC 20.7%. That is the page.

Population and queries

All counts are papers. Sentinels are not answers. Out-of-corpus venue rows are mention sweeps, not publication counts.

The OVERVIEW.md venue table is reproduced exactly (papers, empirical %, crawled %). The report throws if those seven rows move.

Folding and residue

  • No name fold on the seven venues. The extractor's venue enum is the population. Residue of unexpected venue strings: 0 (the report fails).
  • Posters: slug-start poster- or title-start Poster:. Union is CCS 96 + IMC 42 = 138. Same rule as report_corpus.mjs.
  • Out-of-corpus mentions are regex sweeps, labelled upper bounds. Residue / homographs printed:
    • RAID loose − strict = 120 papers the year/full-name pattern misses. Some are disk RAID. The page publishes both.
    • CHI samples (8) were all CHI proceedings citations, not χ². The regex requires a year or “Human Factors”.
    • SOUPS samples include a real SOUPS citation and soups@narus.com (IMC 2010). The page says so.
  • artifacts === null is a documented shape (seen in extract/run1). The published script treats it as no own-artifact, not as a missing key.

Quotes checked against paper.cols.txt

Mention-sweep contexts are the check, not paper-result quotes. Eight CHI contexts and six RAID-strict / SOUPS contexts were printed by the report. All CHI samples were venue citations. One SOUPS sample is an email local-part; the page discloses it.

Rejected:

  • Updating only the year in the stub URLs (www2025, sp2025, CCS2025, NDSS2025, pets cfp25, eurosp2025, asiaccs2024, acsac 2024, esorics2025).
  • Keeping Scimago 27? / 76? in an “H5” column.
  • Leading with CORE A* vs A as if that were the measurement question.
  • “IMC is the measurement venue” as advice to submit a website crawl there.
  • myhuiban / secondary deadline aggregators as the date source.
  • acmweb2027.org as the WWW 2027 link.
  • Counting mention sweeps as papers published at EuroS&P / CHI / etc.
  • A PAM deadline row (CFP not fetched).
  • An engineering-venue family with ICWE/NSDI/ATC rows (not fetched; WWW+IMC cover the job).
  • SEO “top security conferences 2026” listicles. None were used as a source.
  • Inventing EuroS&P 2027 / CCS 2027 / IMC 2027 / SOUPS 2027 dates from last year's months.

What the corpus and sources do not establish

  • How often EuroS&P, ACSAC, RAID, AsiaCCS, CHI, SOUPS, ConPro or IWPE publish web crawls. They are not in the 5,859.
  • Whether a 2027 ConPro will have IEEE proceedings.
  • ESORICS 2027 cycles.
  • IMC 2027 dates.
  • Which WWW 2027 research track a crawl paper should tick. The CFP was read; track names were not copied into the table.
  • Reviewer taste (“IMC likes graphs”). Left as a WRAP todo.
  • Whether the CCS 2026 HotCRP breach affected any paper in this extraction (CCS 2026 extracted = 0).

Judgement calls

  • Improve the stub rather than split into writing:conferences:security and a measurement page.
  • Lead with “where to submit and why”, then a CFP table. Crawl-rate ranking is the important-box warning (do not send a website crawl to IMC because of the name); the reprint script is on this provenance page because readers do not have extract/run1.
  • Keep H5, but in a fallback section, with Scholar-only numbers, and call out the stub's Scimago mix-up.
  • Organise by decision (what you measured) then tables, which closes “organise by topics?” without a second taxonomy.
  • CFP process notes (frozen author lists, 13 pages, 7-paper cap, PETS skip-an-issue) stand in for “conference-specific writing advice” as far as a primary source will go. Taste stays a TODO.
  • Cite only [1Stafeev, Aleksei; Pellegrino, Giancarlo (2024): "SoK: State of the Krawlers – Evaluating the Effectiveness of Crawling Algorithms for Web Security Measurements", in: Proceedings of the USENIX Security Symposium. (Link)] and [2Laperdrix, Pierre; Bielova, Nataliia; Baudry, Benoit; Avoine, Gildas (2020): "Browser Fingerprinting: A Survey", ACM Transactions on the Web 14(2). (DOI)], both already in the live bibliography. No new keys.
  • Start already links the page. Blurb updated in the same sitting if the live outline still says only “security and privacy”.
  • check_attributions.mjs matches table-row “Name et al., VENUE YEAR [key]” only. This page attributes in prose, so that guard reports 0 checked. That is not a pass.

Embedded script

pages/venue_rates.py lives here, not on conferences. The content page is a submission map; this script needs extract/run1, which readers of the wiki do not have. The file on disk is byte-identical to the block below (diffed before this save). Quoted output is the 2026-08-27 run against extract/run1.

venue_rates.py
#!/usr/bin/env python3
"""Print crawl / empirical / human-subjects rates per venue.
 
The seven-venue extraction is not a web-measurement corpus. This script is
the reprint on provenance:writing:conferences (not the content page: readers

many crawled, how many are empirical, how many recruited human participants.

Review freeze and log

Draft freeze: out/frozen_conferences/ (2026-08-27). Reviewers were told the author context may not be exhaustive, and were handed that snapshot. The content page was not edited while the three focused reviewers ran.

All four passes used GPT 5.6 Luna medium (gpt-5.6-luna-medium), not the spec's sonnet/fable split.

Focused pass 1 — figures vs script (GPT 5.6 Luna medium)

  • Accepted (major). “IMC is the venue that almost only publishes measurement” named a different population than the script. The script counts isEmpirical. Applied: the sentence now says empirical / isEmpirical, and that this is not the same as “measurement”.
  • Accepted (minor). venue_rates.py claimed to fail on missing year/slug but only read venue. Applied: the loop now reads year and slug and throws if either is null/empty. Output unchanged. Re-embedded; quoted <code> still equals a fresh run.
  • Everything else the reviewer checked matched (venue table, rankings, sweeps, posters, empty venue-years, CLI flags, wrap/tables).

Focused pass 2 — citations and quotes (GPT 5.6 Luna medium)

  • No findings. Both '[1Stafeev, Aleksei; Pellegrino, Giancarlo (2024): "SoK: State of the Krawlers – Evaluating the Effectiveness of Crawling Algorithms for Web Security Measurements", in: Proceedings of the USENIX Security Symposium. (Link)]' and '[2Laperdrix, Pierre; Bielova, Nataliia; Baudry, Benoit; Avoine, Gildas (2020): "Browser Fingerprinting: A Survey", ACM Transactions on the Web 14(2). (DOI)]' resolve uniquely in the live bibliography; author/year/venue match; Stafeev's seven-venue + keyword-cut claim is in the paper. Accepted as a clean pass.

Focused pass 3 — external currency (GPT 5.6 Luna medium)

  • Accepted (minor). USENIX '27 cycle 1 registration 18 Aug 2026 was omitted (paper 25 Aug was present). Applied, and added to the check script.
  • Accepted (minor). NDSS 2027 dates/location missing. Verified on https://www.ndss-symposium.org/ndss2027/ (not the CFP): 22–26 March 2027, Seoul. Applied. Also added CHI 2027 conference dates 10–14 May 2027 from chi2027.acm.org (the open-deadline box had the city only).
  • Rerun of the check script on the freeze passed; Scholar h5 including SOUPS 35 / RAID 28 and ICORE ranks matched.

Generic pass (GPT 5.6 Luna medium, no checklist)

Ran on the applied page after the focused fixes, not on the freeze. Reviewer session 2026-08-27.

  • Accepted (major). The page said external_checks_conferences.sh re-fetches the published deadlines, ICORE ranks and Scholar h5 values, but the script omitted Scholar h5 for SOUPS, ESORICS and RAID (they are below the first page of the security category list), ICORE for USENIX, NDSS, EuroS&P and AsiaCCS, and the exact CHI 10–14 May / USENIX Denver 11–13 Aug conference dates. Applied: those fetches are now in the script. SOUPS / ESORICS / RAID use Scholar search_venues (the live ESORICS table omits the acronym; h5 is still 34). Re-ran 2026-08-27, exit 0, no FAILURE lines.
  • Accepted (minor). This log was empty while the generic pass was in flight. This paragraph is the disposition.
  • Rejected (minor). check_page_numbers.mjs –code flags 100 from 100 * n / d in the embedded script. That is a percentage multiplier, not a corpus figure. Whole-page checking without –code passes. The shared guard was not changed.

Post-publish edit (2026-08-27)

The content page was rewritten so it is a submission map: where to send the paper, and the current CFP with dates. venue_rates.py and its extract/run1 output moved here — readers of conferences do not have the dataset. Mention-sweep columns, poster rates, and the methodology section left this page's population table and the report output. No new review freeze.
