Evaluates distributed computing research to determine publication venue fit across ACM PODC, DISC, SPAA, systems conferences, and theoretical journals.

PODC Topic Selection guides distributed computing researchers in selecting the right academic publication venue for their theoretical and algorithmic results. By analyzing the core distributed model, timing assumptions, fault models, and cost measures, this skill helps authors navigate routing decisions between ACM PODC, DISC, SPAA, general theory venues (STOC/FOCS/SODA), systems conferences (OSDI/NSDI/DSN), and dedicated journals (JACM, Distributed Computing). It includes rigorous tests to separate distributed theory from sequential algorithms or built systems, clarifies the distinction between PODC and PODS, and assesses proof maturity for regular papers versus brief announcements.
