Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Theoretical We show that different variations of the problem are computationally hard by exploiting relations of the problem with well-known hard graph problems. On the positive side, we present polynomial-time algorithms that compute conference programs that have a social utility that is provably close to the optimal one (within constant factors). Our algorithms are either combinatorial or based on linear programming and randomized rounding.

Pseudocode No The paper describes algorithms in prose (e.g., 'Our next algorithm is based on linear programming and randomized rounding'), but it does not include any structured pseudocode or algorithm blocks.
Open Source Code No The paper does not provide any explicit statements about releasing source code for the described methodology or links to a code repository.
Open Datasets No The paper is theoretical and does not involve empirical experiments with datasets, therefore, there is no mention of training data availability.
Dataset Splits No The paper is theoretical and does not describe empirical experiments or dataset usage, thus no validation split information is provided.
Hardware Specification No The paper is theoretical and focuses on algorithm design and proofs; it does not describe empirical experiments, and therefore, no hardware specifications are mentioned.
Software Dependencies No The paper is theoretical and discusses algorithms (e.g., Edmonds' algorithm, linear programming) without specifying any particular software dependencies with version numbers for implementation or experimental setup.
Experiment Setup No The paper focuses on theoretical analysis and algorithm design. It does not provide details on practical experimental setups, such as hyperparameters or training configurations.
