Committee Sizes by Conference

Darker cells indicate larger committees. Cells below 5 members (likely incomplete data) are omitted.


Growth Over Time

Total committee assignments per year. Growth reflects both new conferences adopting AE processes and existing committees scaling up.


Service Frequency

How many terms do evaluators serve? Most serve once, but a growing cohort returns repeatedly — building institutional knowledge.


Year-over-year retention: what fraction of each year’s committee served the previous year? The dashed line tracks retention across area boundaries (e.g., a security evaluator who also served in systems counts as retained).
