论文摘要
第13届组合搜索研讨会（SOCS）于2020年5月26日至28日举行。原定于3月初在奥地利维也纳举行，该研讨会涉及一项完全在线技术计划。作为面对面的活动，SOC为参与者提供了各种各样的学术活动，包括技术谈判（长期和短暂），海报会议，全体会议，社区会议，以及2020年的新课程，这是一项大师班教程计划。 本文描述了与将这些不同的活动适应在线环境相关的挑战，方法和机会。我们考虑了活动之前，期间和之后的日程安排，分发，与会者互动和社区参与等问题。我们报告了SOC在每种情况下采取的方法，我们对其有效性进行事后分析，并讨论这些决定在2020年SOCS之后的日子如何继续影响SOCS社区。
The 13th Symposium on Combinatorial Search (SoCS) was held May 26-28, 2020. Originally scheduled to take place in Vienna, Austria, the symposium pivoted toward a fully online technical program in early March. As an in-person event SoCS offers participants a diverse array of scholarly activities including technical talks (long and short), poster sessions, plenary sessions, a community meeting and, new for 2020, a Master Class tutorial program. This paper describes challenges, approaches and opportunities associated with adapting these many different activities to the online setting. We consider issues such as scheduling, dissemination, attendee interaction and community engagement before, during and after the event. We report on the approaches taken by SoCS in each case, we give a post-hoc analysis of their their effectiveness and we discuss how these decisions continue to impact the SoCS community in the days after SoCS 2020.
