csrankings considered harmful. Three conferences per area (networking only gets two as apparently it is not an important fiedl) seems crazy - note they had to split AI into a number of subfields. IIRC Usenix ATC (and maybe Eurosys?) were not originally included on csrankings. Coincident with Meyer's "fossilization" complaint, csrankings seems to ignore many conferences focused on emerging work, new ideas, or industry developments. There also seem to be various field omissions such as theory, cloud computing, multimedia, optical networking and computing, storage and file systems, quantum, etc. Although a good venue can increase visibility, and impact to some extent, ultimately the quality of the work is what matters most.
