Open issues in organizing computer systems conferences

The Workshop on Organizing Workshops, Conferences, and Symposia for Computer Systems (WOWCS) was organized to "bring together conference organizers (past, present, and future) and other interested people to discuss the issues they confront." In conjunction with WOWCS, we survey some previous publications that discuss open issues related to organizing computer systems conferences, especially concerning conduct and management of the review process. We also list some topics about which we wish WOWCS had received submissions, but did not; these could be good topics for future articles. Categories and Subject Descriptors K.7.m [The computing profession]: Miscellaneous Keywords Conferences, Workshops, Program Committees, Reviewing
