  I compare several network-level measures of centrality to common measures of author reputation and influence (e.g. hindex, i10index), all taken over the data set of papers published in 2017 at major computer systems conferences and some controls. I hypothesize that centrality measures will correlate strongly with the reputation and influence measures. My results confirm several expected correlations and exhibit a few surprising absences of correlation. In particular, there was an absence of statistically significant correlation between degree centrality and hindex,
