# Top Tier Systems Conferences and Their Locations

Wondering about the US bias of our top tier conferences, my goal was to

visualize the actual state of affairs. A couple of hours of plotly coding later,

I managed to create a nice visual map of the top tier conferences over the last

10 years.

Software engineering is the most inclusive as it moves a lot and spreads

geographically. Systems and architecture tries and moves somewhat. Security is

abysmal, only one of the top 4 conferences moves, the others remain put or

mostly put.

Adjust the code at will, it requires plotly and geopy:

```

apt install python3-plotly python3-geopy

```

You also need numpy and a couple of other basic packages that should be

installed if you ever ran Python on your system.

If you want to check out the visual map, check out
