Once every `EPOCHS_PER_SYNC_COMMITTEE_PERIOD` epochs, the next `SyncCommittee` becomes the current `SyncCommittee` and the next committee is computed and stored.
*Note*: The data required to compute a given committee is not cached in the `BeaconState` after committees are calculated at the period boundaries.
This means that calling `get_sync_commitee()` in a given `epoch` can return a different result than what was computed during the relevant epoch transition.
For this reason, *always* get committee assignments via the fields of the `BeaconState` (`current_sync_committee` and `next_sync_committee`) or use the above reference code.
A validator should plan for future sync committee assignments by noting which sync committee periods they are selected for participation.

###### Aggregation bits
Let `contribution.aggregation_bits` be a `Bitvector[SYNC_COMMITTEE_SIZE // SYNC_COMMITTEE_SUBNET_COUNT]`, where the `index`th bit is set in the `Bitvector` for each corresponding validator included in this aggregate from the corresponding subcommittee.
An aggregator finds the index in the sync committee (as returned by `get_sync_committee_indices()`) for a given validator referenced by `sync_committee_signature.validator_index` and maps the sync committee index to an index in the subcommittee (along with the prior `subcommittee_index`). This index within the subcommittee is set in `contribution.aggegration_bits`.
An aggregator finds the index in the sync committee (as determined by a reverse pubkey lookup on `state.current_sync_committee.pubkeys`) for a given validator referenced by `sync_committee_signature.validator_index` and maps the sync committee index to an index in the subcommittee (along with the prior `subcommittee_index`). This index within the subcommittee is set in `contribution.aggegration_bits`.
For example, if a validator with index `2044` is pseudo-randomly sampled to sync committee index `135`. This sync committee index maps to `subcommittee_index` `1` with position `7` in the `Bitvector` for the contribution.
