RESEARCH PAPERS

This year we had a record number of submissions (667) to the refereed technical paper tracks. We accepted 75 papers, which translates into an acceptance rate of just 11%, and makes this conference the most competitive yet. On top of this, nine further papers were accepted from the Alternate Tracks

The technical programme committee was divided into 11 research areas (plus two alternate areas), each with at least two chairs and its own panel of reviewers. All papers were reviewed rigorously by the programme committee. Every paper was reviewed by at least three reviewers. Candidate accepts, borderline, and controversial papers were subject to lengthy discussion and meta-reviewing. Finally, a two-day meeting, attended by all track chairs, discussed the nominations and finalised the programme choices.

The following lists of papers, divide into scheduled conference slots, are linked on their titles to an abstract page Nominations for Best Paper and Best Student paper awards are highlighted in the list.
