This data was entered by hand (obtained by contacting past conference organizers, retrieving cached conference websites, and searching Resumes) so please email me if you notice any errors or omissions: bestpapers-AT-jeffhuang.com. I tried to collect best paper awards from the top-tier conferences in each area, but some conferences do not have such an award (e.g. SIGGRAPH, CAV). "Distinguished paper award" and "outstanding paper award" were also collected but "best student paper" (e.g. NIPS) or "best 10-year old paper" (e.g. POPL, PLDI) were not collected.

Credit is given in decreasing author order as customary in most fields. First authors are given 1 point, second authors are given 0.5 points, third authors are given 0.33 points, etc. These points are then divided by the sum of points for that paper, i.e. normalizing it. This ranking may be inaccurate or incomplete, may not reflect the current state of best paper awards, and is not an official list. If you are not satisfied with the ranking listed here, please disregard it.
