podc-supplementary

Use when deciding what goes in the first 10 read-guaranteed pages of an ACM PODC submission versus the full version / appendix, and when choosing between a regular paper and a Brief Announcement — so that nothing which decides acceptance lives past page 10 and every deferred proof remains reachable.

# PODC Supplementary

PODC's content-placement problem is unusual: the *submission* has no page limit, but only the
abstract and the **first 10 pages after the title page** are guaranteed to be read. Everything else —
including most of your proofs — is read at the committee's discretion. So the split is not
"paper vs. appendix" but "**decision-critical (must be in 10 pages) vs. verification-detail (may be
deferred)**." Get it wrong and a reviewer decides against a paper whose key idea sat on page 15.

## The placement rule

```text
Anything that decides ACCEPTANCE  -> first 10 pages after the title page (guaranteed read)
Anything that only VERIFIES it    -> full version / appendix (read at the committee's discretion)
```
