Systematizing Systematization of Knowledge
Since 2010, the IEEE Symposium on Security and Privacy (“Oakland” conference) has included papers on Systematization of Knowledge (SoK). This paper track grew out of discussions at the NSF/IARPA/NSA Workshop on the Science of Security held at the Claremont Resort in November 2008. This site collects all the Oakland SoK papers.
