Data reveals a massive shift in the country of origin for papers at SIGCOMM, a top computer systems conference. In 2016, the US accounted for 79% of papers while China held only 10%. By 2026, the US share dropped to 34%, while China surged to 57%, meaning China alone now produces more than the US and all other countries combined. This trend mirrors changes seen at other venues like NSDI, suggesting China's research investments are paying off as the US cuts science funding.
