The submission server for the 62nd FOCS is open!

Please read the Call for Papers carefully before you submit.

Below are some important points:

• The title/abstract registration deadline is 5 pm EDT on May 31st, 2021. Since this information will be used in paper assignments, significant changes to the title/abstract will not be allowed after this deadline.
• The full paper submission deadline is 5 pm EDT on June 3, 2021.
• The conference is expected to take place physically in Boulder, Colorado Feb 7-10, 2022.
• Papers that broaden the reach of the theory of computing, make foundational connections to other areas, or raise important problems and demonstrate that they can benefit from theoretical investigation and analysis are especially encouraged.
• Reviewers will be asked to evaluate submissions both on conceptual and technical merits. So, authors are encouraged to emphasize both conceptual and technical novelty in the first few pages of the paper. 
• FOCS is an IEEE conference and as such, we will review papers in alignment with the IEEE ethics guidelines. Authors are encouraged to reflect on these guidelines in shaping their work, dissemination, and submission.

The PC is eagerly looking forward to your submissions!
