A comprehensive guide for authors responding to technical reviews and revising conference papers during a limited, combined rebuttal window. It teaches how to strategically triage objections, run decisive experiments, craft arguments for a program committee champion, and ensure minimal, faithful revisions to maximize acceptance chances.

This comprehensive guide provides a strategic framework for drafting author responses in academic conference review cycles (e.g., NAACL ARR). It teaches authors how to prioritize reviewer objections based on their downstream impact, structure evidence using coordinates, maintain professional tone, and craft a defensible "frozen record" for the final committee review, maximizing acceptance chances.

This methodology provides a comprehensive framework for estimating buffered numbers—such as capacity limits, timeframes, or budgets—when making commitments under uncertainty. It guides users to calculate a buffer based on both residual estimation error and the potential cost of failure (breach cost), ensuring resilience against costly underestimation in critical systems or plans.

A rigorous decision-making methodology that quantifies the trade-offs when allocating scarce resources (time, budget, attention). Instead of merely evaluating a chosen path, this framework forces the user to identify the single best alternative forgone, calculating the net value delta (chosen value minus best forgone value). It is essential for feature prioritization, major commitments, and strategic planning to prevent decisions based solely on immediate perceived gains.
